071 Speculation about real-life games

In the hall on the second floor of the restaurant, a hand-cranked flashlight emitted a faint light, and the war dragon stepped forward, picked it up and shook it twice, and the light was brighter again. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The food plates on the table had been cleaned up by the veterinarians, and all the free people in the special operations team sat down around the table, except for the two who were on guard and the one who were in confinement. They want to know everything about the game, not just curiosity and tasks.

"This test was a phenomenon that I stumbled upon – network latency in the midst of a fire. Saying latency may not be appropriate, more like going offline. Ling Feng first made a summary of the situation this time: "The fire can make the operation of data exchange between the game and the server such as blood regeneration and blue making ineffective. However, the damage to this kind of data, which should be calculated on the server, is not affected. ”

"Does this game still have servers?" War Dragon was the first to ask questions, because he knew too little about the game, his mind was almost full of questions, but the first thing he asked was what he said about the server?

At this time, Yun Tian also asked in a curious tone: "The game has become a reality like this, and there is still a server like the previous online games?" ”

"Based on my observations and speculations the other day, there should be. That's why I'm looking for GM permissions, because with servers, it's possible to have this kind of permission to control servers. After Ling Feng explained first, he dipped it in water and began to draw on the table. He wants to give literacy to several fighters: "The program structure of an online game consists of two parts, one is the client, and as the name suggests, it is the program that the client player uses. The other part is the server side, which is the program used by the server. ”

He drew two circles and connected them together with a line: "The server is mainly responsible for the computation of the game world, that is, the computation of the part that can communicate with other players, such as attacks. The client mainly performs personal scene performance, and some content calculations that are only related to individuals. For example, attack effects. ”

"Because there were some things that you couldn't see without using the Origin Crystal of the personal terminal. For example, the loot dropped by monsters, the various UIs in front of the player, and the equipment still exists if it does not appear, etc., so the client exists, that is, the starting crystal. It bears the responsibility of loot, UI and equipment icons and much more in the eyes of the player. In other words, those things do not exist in reality, but we can see that they are all manifestations of the client. ”

"At the same time, these loot and equipment, including the items in the backpack that cannot be seen or touched in the game, must have something to record their presence, as well as calculate the effect of their use. And what is needed for this calculation is the server. These props do not exist naturally, and nature does not represent them. The server records and the client represents the form of existence of these items. Although the advent of games is very different from the previous online games, it is clear that there is still a need for something to record and calculate these things. It may not be the kind of server we remember, it may be a magical crystal with computing power, and even the brain of a monster may ......"

Although Ling Feng said it magically, the others were confused, but they all heard that this was the basis for Ling Feng to judge why there was a "server". Because they weren't familiar with it, they didn't want to continue to delve into it, so Yun Tian continued, "What's the deal with this delay? ”

"This is also one of the bases for me to judge that there is a 'server'. Under normal circumstances, the effect should be effective soon after drinking blood, but not in fire, and the effect of the blood vial will not be visible until it leaves the fire. ”

"Isn't it because the fire is so hot that your blood keeps going down and cancels out the blood vial?" The stone stared at Ling Feng with wide eyes.

Of course, Ling Feng wouldn't make this low-level mistake, but before he could explain, Yun Tian picked up the words: "Or is it possible that the flame can invalidate the blood vial?" ”

"Probably not." Ling Feng shook his head: "If it is invalid, then the blood vial should not have an effect after I leave, because the bottle has already been used." In fact, the effect of the blood vial was achieved after it was fired, and it was not discounted. When I use a slow-healing blood vial, the fire prevents the buff from continuing to heal, but as long as I leave, the recovery continues, and the total amount of recovery does not change. It's like the effect is delayed, that's why I use delay. If I stand in the fire and don't come out, I'm actually disconnected from the 'server'. ”

Yun Tian has a good experience of game latency, server conditions, etc., so he was the first to understand: "You mean that in reality, the network connection of this game can be blocked by fire?" ”

Ling Feng nodded, drew a circle on the table, and circled the client: "That's right, the fire can disconnect the two of them." This could be the key to studying how games communicate now. ”

Skynet has been disconnected in reality, and all electromagnetic communications have been disrupted, but the game that has descended into reality has not been affected. For example, players can still whisper from a distance, and even Yun Tian and Ling Feng had a virtual chat room last time, which shows that the game has its own way of communication.

Now he had discovered one of the features of this method -- that fire could interfere with it.

Zhan Long stood up at this time: "Wait for now, it's best to ask our experts to come and listen to this problem." As he spoke, he waved his hand to the stone next to him: "Go and invite Xiao Jiang." ”

It didn't take long for Xiao Jiang to follow the stone over, not only with a reluctant face, but also with a vicious glare at Ling Feng.

"Ling Feng has some speculations, you can also listen to them, study them from a professional aspect, and see what is going on." War Dragon explained to her.

Jiang Mingyue looked at Ling Feng, that meant please speak.

Ling Feng repeated his original speculation.

Jiang Mingyue's rebuttal soon arrived: "Impossible, judging from what you said, this game uses a wireless transmission method, which is likely to be an electromagnetic wave or force field, and their tiny degree will not be affected by temperature." ”

Ling Feng stretched out his hands: "This is the situation I have seen so far, so from a professional point of view, how did this phenomenon happen?" ”

"Maybe it's due to the influence of high-temperature plasma......," Jiang Mingyue only said one sentence and stopped: "Now even something as big as a monster has not been studied clearly, and something like a signal that cannot be seen or touched is even more difficult to figure out." Why bother looking for the near and far? ”

From this sentence, Ling Feng knew that she also had no clue, so she no longer continued to ask, but continued her own speculation: "The problem of delay is still a small problem, and you can feel its existence from the test. And what fire can stop can also be used by us when the time is right. But another problem is troublesome, I found that after the game reaches reality, in addition to the client and the server, there is another side, which I call the reality side. ”
