Rollback Netcode in Brood War

[tO_cReAtiVee]

Watch this youtube video for an explanation what this is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIt9xua9bLc

This crazy update for the private Server Shield Battery improves the shitty ass netcode of SC:R and makes it possible to play on high turn rates against people that were previously laggy.

That server also has Fastest 1v1, 2v2 and 3v3 matchmaking.

Maybe its time to switch the server? I mean I dont play league, so my oppinion doesnt matter, but I just wanted to share the information.

See

and
https://tl.net/forum/brood-war/646540-rollback-netcode-in-brood-war#8

for more information. Maybe Sword could talk to the devs over there and implement SCW somehow with their ladder and improved netcode?

You should send sword a private message about it and a link to this post.   I don’t think he will see it otherwise

Thanks for showing this 

The low-lat stuff sounds great, but I don't think fastest would be fastest without stacking 

Gameplay fixes
Permanently stacked workers. Fixed an exploit that allowed workers to stay stacked (non-colliding) even while attacking, performed by queueing move orders on an unoccupied vespene geyser
