algorithms are the solutions to any problem.

yes, it is a problem.
no, nor we or you seem to have a solution. what is the point of this thread again?

besides, lag is a problem every game has, unless you have the best hardware and connection in the planet.

Well I can play SK on steam and lag for about 5 seconds once every minute or so

OR

I can play TF2 on steam (same computer) and lag for half a second every 15 minutes.

Lag is an issue in every game, it's just debilitating in SK.

Java is the problem

Most java games aren't huge. Most aren't MMO's either. As SK has become a rather large game filled with texture files, and is pretty much an MMO, if not the most popular, this is generally what causes the lag. Graphic lag that is, server side lag adds to this, making it worse.

The only solution would be to convert it to a different coding format, the problem being with that is that it would take a lot of time and effort, and it could lose it's cross platform compatibility (dependent on what they converted it too), and that would cause an uproar, not to mention how many bugs would need squashing if they did actually port it to a different code.

So yeah. Solutions are not easy to come across.

This isn't a suggestion. What Sir-Shadow-Striker said is a suggestion, but this thread is not.
