Summary0002168: Tweak Unlagged menu/cvar
DescriptionIn [MAIN MENU] -> Multiplayer : There is only a choice to use unlagged (Yes/No). No possibility to enable the type of unlagged you wish.

So, personnal idea: rewrite the CVAR for unlagged with those choices:

0 : No Unlagged
1 : Unlagged - Ping
2 : Unlagged - GameTic

Would need to be applyable to [MAIN MENU] -> Multiplayer , and [MAIN MENU] -> Options -> Network -> Unlagged, & Unlag Type.
Additional InformationInstead of using 2 cvars (which is honestly dumb), merge it into one single CVAR is space-saving.

Or just get rid of ping based unlagged, since gametic unlagged is supposed to make the former obsolete.

If that does happen, that'd be also a greater solution.

Ping unlagged is crud in comparison to GameTic, so I'd not be bothered if it were removed.

I'd personally like to still have the ping option available since it worked fine for me.

But there's nothing wrong with gametic unlagged, right? So the ping unlagged is unnecessary and we should get rid of it now that gametic unlagged is shown to work properly (like how we planned to).

I'm going to have to agree with the notion that ping based unlagged should be thrown out the window. While this method of dealing with lag may have worked for some people, it was not very adequate for the majority of players. The premise for gametic based unlagged was to supply a more robust and reliable method of dealing with lag and for the most part, it has worked as intended. I do not see any reason to keep the ping option unless people start having issues with gametic unlagged.

And if they do we can always reintroduce it later.

Network options now have a simple on/off for unlagged as intended.
