NetConnection::GhostRef Struct Reference

#include <netConnection.h>

Detailed Description

Structure to track ghost references in packets.

Every packet we send out with an update from a ghost causes one of these to be allocated. mask is used to track what states were sent; that way if a packet is dropped, we can easily manipulate the stored states and figure out what if any data we need to resend.
