not really an issue per se, but my thoughts on the network system for SM..

why reinvent the wheel?

i know from personal experience how much more satisfying it is to write your own,
but im pretty sure alot of your wishlist for 'fixing' the netmelee can be found using
an opensource network library...
altho this might be a bit too robust for SM's needs, the one id reccomend is the
Torque Network Library ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/opentnl )
this was the network subsystem used in starsiege:tribes

if core team has discussed this option before and rejected it, sorry for wasting forum space

*enjoy the sauce*
