tickrate of blockland?

[Waru]

how many times per second does blockland send data from server to client or vice versa? 60? more than that?

Good question. I want to know too.

[Metario]

every 32ms

[Kyuande]

If you go under 32ms on a schedule I assume it prioritizes the schedule but doesn't actually go that fast

~31

As they said before, that is for schedules.

What you ask, though, is more about how low the latency between client and server is. It also is about how many times the engine updates per second. As mentioned previously, that is where schedules comes in, as that gives a hint of how many times that happens at most. Therefore, packages between the server and client will happens asynchronously, but at best it will be 60 times a second.

Blockland sends packets to the clients every 32ms. Though it can send several packets at once if necessary for many ghost updates.

its essentially 31 times per second at best (+an extra packet every 4 seconds) unless the server uses a custom tick rate which I've never seen

does this happen when many messages get sent to a client at once aswell?

No. Fast packets are only active before you spawn or if you have more than ~200 ghost updates queued.

The reason to have them active before spawning is to download files faster, but Badspot conveniently forgot to also make it send more file chunks :D :D
