Package wyvern.common.net Description

Constants and interfaces for making remote procedure calls (RPC).

The server talks to the client through a raw-socket RPC system, where the RPC calls are defined in this package.

Communication from the client to the server is straightforward: the client always sends text strings to the server, even for mouse events and other kinds of control messages.
