Title: Should i use Tcp or Udp?
Post by: Jim70 on September 22, 2015, 05:14:20 pm
I am making a multiplayer top-down shooter, I am familiar with tcp but considering how fast udp is, is it worth it?

Stop opening new forum posts. Do your research about TCP and UDP and come back when you have concrete SFML-related questions.

Can you delete this post? For some reason it doesn't let me.

And the first idea you have is to post every single one in our forum, even though none of them is SFML-related? ::)

Really, please read somewhere what UDP and TCP are, how they work, and which one to use in which situation. This has been explained a million times across the Internet. I'm sure almost all of your questions can be answered like this.
