<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Lucida Console">When a client dies while connected to a server, the server generates a DISCONNECTED event after a while. When running a little test with both the client and server on the same computer, that 'while' is about 15 seconds. This seems to be controlled by the</FONT> <FONT SIZE=1 FACE="Lucida Console">ENET_PEER_TIMEOUT_LIMIT value. If I change the value from 32 to 64, the delay is now ~ 50 seconds. Also, by looking at the code, I understand the observed timeout is dependant on the actual roudtrip duration that the server observed.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=1 FACE="Lucida Console">So, the question is: can I specify a timeout setting that will yield predictable results, and how ?</FONT>
