README
Provides a reasonable guarantee that messages being send over UDP arrive at the other connector.
This crate is a work in progress and should not be used in production yet.
This crate uses a struct called Connector that eventually guarantees that all persistent messages
arrive at the other end, or it will disconnect.
This crate differentiates between two message types:
- Confirmed: This is a message that is:
-
- Guaranteed to arrive at some point
-
- Not guaranteed to arrive in the correct order
- Unconfirmed: This is a message that is not guaranteed to arrive
Use cases can be:
- Sending player data does not always have to arrive, because the location is updated 10 times a second (unconfirmed)
- Login information should always arrive, but this can take a second (confirmed)
