ICE Networking Window

[Spy_Emanciator]

Hello,

After many years of want I'm happy to drop positive feedback in the bucket. New ICE window is in effect with this patch, and I even watched it, within 5 seconds, recover a dropped player through a networking reroute!

Awesome work! Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok so we had a 2 way dc where the game was stalled indefinitely. 2 players DC'ed and 1 had to pony up and leave. In this case the player was on my team and I lost elo because of this shitty situation. 1st i've seen like this since ICE implementation.

Please investigate.

we still don't use elo
the replay file has a few hundred bytes and is effectively useless to find out anything
logs of the users with the con issue would help

The replay was just to show that one player had to leave for the game to continue near the midpoint. He was not happy abut this, and was connected to 11/12 players. When this happens the 2 dc's can be heard in chat text by all other 11 and the 2 can't hear each other. Very strange that situation can not be refreshed somehow.

Does the ICE reconnection happen automatically, or do we need to do something?

Do we need to click somewhere on that new ICE window?

You don't have to do anything. ICE will reconnect once it notices a lost connection.

You only have to tell the people that don't know to not leave
