The following video is recorded over INTERNET using an input delay of 4 frames and it feels SMOOTH when playing! Please also checkout [this demo video](https://pan.baidu.com/s/1_DAEuE66s5Obf2GwtVul4Q?pwd=mfpq) to see how this demo carries out a full 60fps synchronization with the help of _batched input upsync/downsync_ for satisfying network I/O performance.
_(how rollback-and-chase in this project roughly works, kindly note that by the current implementation, each frontend only maintains a `lastAllConfirmedInputFrameId` for all the other peers, because the backend only downsyncs all-confirmed inputFrames, see [markConfirmationIfApplicable](https://github.com/genxium/DelayNoMore/blob/v0.9.14/battle_srv/models/room.go#L1085) for more information -- if a serverless peer-to-peer communication is seriously needed here, consider porting [markConfirmationIfApplicable](https://github.com/genxium/DelayNoMore/blob/v0.9.14/battle_srv/models/room.go#L1085) into frontend for maintaining `lastAllConfirmedInputFrameId` under chaotic reception order of inputFrames from peers)_
- [Command Line Tools for Xcode](https://developer.apple.com/download/all/?q=command%20line%20tools) (on OSX) or [TDM-GCC](https://jmeubank.github.io/tdm-gcc/download/) (on Windows) (a `make` executable mandatory)
- [Golang1.18.6](https://golang.org/dl/) (brought down to 1.18 for _GopherJs_ support, mandatory, in China please try a mirror site like [that of ustc](https://mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/golang/))
- [GopherJs1.18.0-beta1](https://github.com/gopherjs/gopherjs/tree/v1.18.0-beta1) (optional, only for developemnt)
- [MySQL 5.7](https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/windows/installer/5.7.html) (mandatory, for OSX not all versions of 5.7 can be found thus 5.7.24 is recommended)
- [CocosCreator v2.2.1](https://www.cocos.com/en/cocos-creator-2-2-1-released-with-performance-improvements) (mandatory, **ONLY AVAILABLE on Windows or OSX and should be exactly this version**, DON'T use any other version because CocosCreator is well-known for new versions not being backward compatible)
It's strongly recommended that `skeema` is used for provisioning [the required schema](https://github.com/genxium/DelayNoMore/tree/main/database/skeema-repo-root) in MySQL instance. When using `skeema` the steps are as follows.
On `Windows 10/11`, you can compile `skeema` from source and config the host to be `127.0.0.1` instead of `localhost` to use it, i.e. circumventing the pitfall for MySQL unix socket connection on Windows.
### The following command runs redis-server in foreground, it's OK to put it in background
user@anywhere> redis-server
### on Windows using TDM-GCC: mingw32-make run-test
user@proj-root/battle_srv> make run-test
```
### Frontend
The easy way is to try out 2 players with test accounts on a same machine.
- Open CocosCreator v2.2.1 (mandatory, it serves the web content of the following steps)
- Open one browser instance, visit _http://localhost:7456?expectedRoomId=1_, input `add`on the username box and click to request a captcha, this is a test account so a captcha would be returned by the backend and filled automatically (as shown in the figure below), then click and click to proceed to a matching scene.
- Open another browser instance, visit _http://localhost:7456?expectedRoomId=1_, input `bdd`on the username box and click to request a captcha, this is another test account so a captcha would be returned by the backend and filled automatically, then click and click to proceed, when matched a `battle`(but no competition rule yet) would start.
- Try out the onscreen virtual joysticks to move the cars and see if their movements are in-sync.
