ABSTRACT
This paper investigates the influences of network latency and packet loss on the consistency among players in networked racing games. We here deal with the Δ-causality control as causality control and dead-reckoning as prediction control. By experiment, we make a performance comparison among the Δ-causality scheme, the dead-reckoning scheme, a scheme which carries out the Δ-causality control and dead-reckoning together, and a scheme which performs neither of the two types of control. As a result, we show that the combination use of the two types of control can keep the consistency and fairness among players in good condition.

Fairness in dead-reckoning based distributed multi-player games
NetGames '05: Proceedings of 4th ACM SIGCOMM workshop on Network and system support for gamesIn a distributed multi-player game that uses dead-reckoning vectors to exchange movement information among players, there is inaccuracy in rendering the objects at the receiver due to network delay between the sender and the receiver. The object is ...
