Multiplayer game development principles. Architecture, networking, synchronization.
Use when CrossFrame Suite routes explicit Chinese casebook work: turning materials into reusable cases, anonymized entries, mechanisms, and retrieval indexes.
Use only when the user explicitly names crossframe-critical for a Chinese structural critique dossier, article plan, or long-form critical essay.
Use when CrossFrame Suite routes explicit Chinese proposition testing, debate analysis, hidden-premise review, rebuttal design, or withdrawal condition checks.
Use when CrossFrame Suite routes explicit Chinese reader replies, editor responses, consultation-style short answers, or boundary-aware structural advice.
Use when explicit CrossFrame work needs a Chinese critical insight essay, commentary, concept essay, public piece, or structure-to-article draft after diagnosis.
Use when CrossFrame Suite routes explicit Chinese notes for books, theories, articles, excerpts, bidirectional reading, absorption, or conflict mapping.

Networking architecture and synchronization principles.
What type of multiplayer?
│
├── Competitive / Real-time
│ └── Dedicated Server (authoritative)
│
├── Cooperative / Casual
│ └── Host-based (one player is server)
│
├── Turn-based
│ └── Client-server (simple)
│
└── Massive (MMO)
└── Distributed servers
| Architecture | Latency | Cost | Security |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dedicated | Low | High | Strong |
| P2P | Variable | Low | Weak |
| Host-based | Medium | Low | Medium |
| Approach | Sync What | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| State Sync | Game state | Simple, few objects |
| Input Sync | Player inputs | Action games |
| Hybrid | Both | Most games |
| Technique | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Prediction | Client predicts server |
| Interpolation | Smooth remote players |
| Reconciliation | Fix mispredictions |
| Lag compensation | Rewind for hit detection |
| Technique | Savings |
|---|---|
| Delta compression | Send only changes |
| Quantization | Reduce precision |
| Priority | Important data first |
| Area of interest | Only nearby entities |
| Type | Rate |
|---|---|
| Position | 20-60 Hz |
| Health | On change |
| Inventory | On change |
| Chat | On send |
Client: "I hit the enemy"
Server: Validate → did projectile actually hit?
→ was player in valid state?
→ was timing possible?
| Cheat | Prevention |
|---|---|
| Speed hack | Server validates movement |
| Aimbot | Server validates sight line |
| Item dupe | Server owns inventory |
| Wall hack | Don't send hidden data |
| Factor | Impact |
|---|---|
| Skill | Fair matches |
| Latency | Playable connection |
| Wait time | Player patience |
| Party size | Group play |
| ❌ Don't | ✅ Do |
|---|---|
| Trust the client | Server is authority |
| Send everything | Send only necessary |
| Ignore latency | Design for 100-200ms |
| Sync exact positions | Interpolate/predict |
Remember: Never trust the client. The server is the source of truth.
