 +Many people have asked me about Terraria networking or have asked how to do game networking properly, from the perspective of Terraria, which does nothing correctly. Though methods have become more advanced, the basics stay the same:
 +  * [[https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Latency_Compensating_Methods_in_Client/Server_In-game_Protocol_Design_and_Optimization|Latency Compensating Methods in Client/Server In-game Protocol Design and Optimization]] by Yahn W.

 +    * Of particular note in this article is the "Umm, This is a Lot of Work" heading.
 +  * [[https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Source_Multiplayer_Networking|Source Multiplayer Networking]] provides a very good overview of entity interpolation and techniques for implementing end-to-end client update loops with snapshot based prediction and server-side authority.
