Hi Blair,

What I'm doing as a test is to set up both a server and a client using ENet, 
connected through localhost. The server echos back anything it receives, and 
the client prints out statistics after 10 seconds.

Kind regards,

Philip Bennefall

  Generally, no. 500ms should be adequate; pinging more frequently is just 
going to take up more bandwidth from ping responses (reliable acks).


  What are you using for comparison as a "valid" ping? The output of your 
platform's ping command?

    Hi Blair,

    Do you think it'd be a good idea to decrease the ping interval? Maybe to 
200 milliseconds?

      Kind regards,

      By default, Enet sends (reliable) ping packets every 500ms, if no other 
reliable traffic was sent in that interval. If you're sending reliable packets 
30 times per second instead of 2 times, it's possible Enet is deriving a more 
accurate average round trip time.

        Hi Lee and others,

        I am having some minor issues with ENet.

        First, I'm trying to get the average up and downstream for each peer by 
using the appropriate data fields in the peer structure but it always returns 0 
for some reason. The same seems to be true with the host structure as well.

        Second, when I look at the average round trip time for a peer, this 
value is only correct if I send out a few reliable packets. on localhost, for 
instance, I ran a test where I sent 30 unreliable packets every second. I poll 
the network every 5 milliseconds, but got an average round trip of 44 
milliseconds. When I changed it to reliable packets, however, I got an average 
of 12 which seems much more reasonable. Is this intended behavior?

        Thanks in advance for any help.

        Kind regards,

        Philip Bennefall
