A Question about Snapshot?

Postby Number 6 » Sun Jan 25, 2009 3:18 pm

When I am loading a map from a server, I notice the names of the players being loaded ie:Bots, Real Players, and one other, Snapshot! What is Snapshot? Is it a Bot or a Player? I can never seem to find him or her? Love this game! What or who is Snapshot? Thanks Again!

A Snapshot contains data about the current gamestate, i.e. every Player's position, score, which entities are being used etc.

Thanks for the info! I figured it must be someting that was related to the game itself. What threw me off was that snapshot was being loaded with the player names. Thanks Again!
