0000839: Some players end up skipping a lot online even though cl_ticsperupdate is 1

Notes
(0003572) TIHan (reporter) 2012-05-06 22:51	I think I brought this up to Torr at one point, and it looks like ping fluctuations and packet loss will cause this. The question will be is how do we handle it?

And I'm pretty sure that Qent didn't lag locally and/or felt that he lost a lot of packets. My ping is 156 in the demo and Qent's is 126. I also noticed this as a spectator on a 98e duel server even before this, but I just thought that one of the clients were lagging normally. But IIRC, the other client started to lag after a changemap map change and the client that lagged earlier didn't lag anymore.

Personally I've looked into it, but I haven't figured out the exact cause of the issue. Packet loss has a factor in this, but I don't think that is the prime cause; it seems ping has an affect against it. I do not know why though.

(0007000) Watermelon (developer) 2013-08-12 15:55	Torr has taken care of this with an upcoming tic buffer.
