Packet Name

[Spodi]

I did this to vbGORE before I used binary packets and to the Kronia game. Though I created a UDT to define each of the packets so I could keep them in order instead of always having to look them up.

Code:

Public Type DCmd
  User_Move As String * 1
  User_Attack As String * 1
  Server_SetUserPos As String * 1
End Type
Public Dcmd As Dcmd

Code:

User_Move = Chr(1)
User_Attack = Chr(2)
...

Code:

Packet = Dcmd.User_Move & ...

Using just numbers limits you a ton. And yes this is an improvement on speed, an improvement where MS and ES both need badly. :wink:
