LB, you speak the truth. The ball's position should be predicted to suit the player about to hit the ball, with little adjustment on the paddles, not that that matters anyway.

I am on my iPod at the moment, so I can't look at the example, but try this:

If you are always sending the balls X and Y positions, try just sending the direction when the ball collides with a wall or bat. That way you have the smallest amount of data to send.

Due to varying amounts of lag that is a pretty bad decision to make, Game_Master.

[Game_Master]

That's what I do usually, and then I also send 'correcting' coordinates every second, to correct the position of the object.

[LB]

Only every second? That could be enough time for it to go wrong, you know.
