[ENet-discuss] ENet-discuss Digest, Vol 146, Issue 1

[Ruud van Gaal]

If you do this:

- peer1: send data packet with ID x, adds 'x' to a list of unacknowledged
packets
- peer2: receives data packet x, sends back packet 'ACK<x>' to peer1.
- peer1: As soon as ACK<x> arrives, clears that ID in the list of
unacknowledges packets.
- peer1: based on the same list, resend packets that have not been ACK'ed
yet and are >t old. Keeps a counter of how many resends have been done.

The main problem should be the ordering of data packets on the other side.
