Major networking enhancements to improve multiplayer performance and
reduce desync issues in games like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe:
Network Performance:
- Add socket connection pooling in BSD service to reduce overhead
- Implement unreliable packet delivery for latency-sensitive game data
- Add packet reliability control for both ProxyPacket and LDNPacket
- Use ENET_PACKET_FLAG_UNSEQUENCED for small UDP packets (<1200 bytes)
Monitoring & Debugging:
- Add PacketStatistics struct to track sent/received/dropped packets
- Enhanced logging for proxy packet handling and socket lifecycle
- Periodic stats logging every 100 packets for diagnostics
Configuration:
- Update lobby_api_url and web_api_url to https://api.ynet-fun.xyz
- Add lobby API URL configuration support
Socket Management:
- Implement SocketPoolKey for efficient socket reuse
- Store domain/type/protocol info in FileDescriptor
- Max pool size limit (8 sockets per type) to prevent memory bloat
- Return closed sockets to pool when room is still connected
Protocol Updates:
- Add 'reliable' field to ProxyPacket and LDNPacket structures
- Update room.cpp packet handlers to respect reliability flags
- Maintain backward compatibility with default reliable=true
These changes significantly reduce packet latency for real-time game
traffic while maintaining reliability for control packets.
