+<PRE>Sorry, I'm not the network guru at all, so may be it looks childish ...
+I think you should implement minimum error checking protocol -
+1. Client sends UDP data to the server
+2. Client wait for confirmation from other end what data was received (use some
+UID for packets to send back as confirmation)
+3. If some timeout expired without confirmation, then client resends its data again

+VL&gt; Hi everybody!
+
+VL&gt; Let's talk a little bit about this great subject: TCP vs. UDP
+
+VL&gt; Thanks to Valerio Santinelli and Olivier Lejade, there's some cool
+VL&gt; discussion about this subject on the web and I would like to have your
+VL&gt; thought and discuss about this.
+
+VL&gt; On Anarchy Online game, they only use TCP protocol between client and server
+VL&gt; (other commercial online game use UDP) and it seems that it causes lot of
+VL&gt; problem like horrible ping or connection lost:

+
+VL&gt; There's also a mail on the MUD-Dev mailing list talking about these problems
+VL&gt; here:
+VL&gt; <A HREF="https://www.kanga.nu/archives/MUD-Dev-L/2001Q3/msg00009.php">https://www.kanga.nu/archives/MUD-Dev-L/2001Q3/msg00009.php</A>
+
+VL&gt; As you perhaps know, we only use TCP/IP (for server-server communication,
+VL&gt; but also for the client-server connection) and we currently think more and
+VL&gt; more about replacing the TCP client-server connection with a UDP one.
+
+VL&gt; In a first step, we would like to know your opinion about this choice. And
+VL&gt; in a next step, we'll do some test about ping/packet lost and so on to
+VL&gt; compare TCP and UDP, and we'll need your help to do that.
