Post subject: Status bit set in position packet
The continuum status bit set in the position packet looks like this:

Code: Show/Hide

0000 0000
HGFE DCBA


Where:
A = stealth
B = cloak
C = xradar
D = antiwarp
E = display flashing image
F = in safezone
G = UFO
H = idle???


What is bit H used for? From what I can tell it is used by continuum to indicate you are idle. If I float around without doing anything it is 0, if I hit a cursor key / hit a wall it is 1 (or the other way around, I forgot).

It would make sense... as long as your idle bit is 1, the server won't send as many position updates of you to other players.
