Detailed Description

psNetPacket gives the networking code the context it needs, and all of this info goes out on the wire.

None of NetPacketEntry's info goes on the wire. A packet is exactly one udp packet that goes over the net, you can embed multiple messages in one packet or you can split up one message over multiple packets

Member Data Documentation

char psNetPacket::data[0]

this can be used as a pointer to the data

Definition at line 75 of file netpacket.h.

uint8_t psNetPacket::flags

Each packet needs to know its own priority.

This is stuck on the end to minimize alignment penalties

Definition at line 72 of file netpacket.h.

uint32_t psNetPacket::msgsize

Definition at line 67 of file netpacket.h.

uint32_t psNetPacket::offset

offset and size together specify a memory block within the psMessageBytes struct

Definition at line 66 of file netpacket.h.

uint32_t psNetPacket::pktid

each packet must know what message it's a part of this should be 0 in most cases as it's assigned at the last minute when sending depending on the connection it's sent on.

Definition at line 61 of file netpacket.h.

uint16_t psNetPacket::pktsize
