[CypherJF] C: 200 Avg: 1550 L: 180 H: 5090 S2C: 0.6 C2S: 0.0 S2CW: -93.-6

The server counts the # weapon packets it has sent you, and your client counts the # weapon packets it receives. The formula is then:

Code: Show/Hide S2CW = (sent - recv) * 1000 / sent;

If recv > sent, then S2CW goes negative. The code to display the percent is something like:

Code: Show/Hide sprintf(buf, "...S2CW: %d.%d", s2cw / 10, s2cw % 10);

How can recv > sent you ask? It's possible there's a bad router sending double packets. People who consistently get negative ploss seem to have their own router/firewalls, and when I have them try without it, the problem goes away.

Our ISP has been been acting very dumb, been having very huge S2Cs like 18+ recently; I've thought about calling them, but what am I going to say. "Oh this game Im playing is showing I have huge ploss". LOL.. I doubt they'd care :/
