thanks a million, i appreciate the information, and i was kinda coming to the conclusion that TCP would be the better option!

Hi,

I'm trying to network two applets (embedded into applications, i know you can't network applets), and i was wondering which would be the better option - UCP or TCP/IP?

I know UDP just keeps firing out packets, and doesn't need any recognition of packet reception, the game is a boxing game - so it has to be as close to real time as possible.

any suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated!
