64-bit integer instead of float in multiplayer games is a good idea?

CaioSilva00977 · 8 Eyl 2022

I was experiencing problems with float in booleans and mathematical events due to the float’s inaccuracy in the engine not reaching integer values, so I changed most of the variables and events to 64 bit integers but now I’m afraid that this can causes a burden on the server when passing the RPC between clients and server. I still haven’t noticed anything different using 64-bit integer instead of float.

not used this

I think you should use strings to not lose the accuracy, and then parse it on the client-side, That's how gRPC big int works for example

So, you did change to 64 and continue to happen? So what was The problem, i dont even use this but i want to help

64bit int will use a lot of memory and loses precision cause of less decimal

yeah i think that`s true

yeah i thinke that true

floats SLOW DOWN calculations VERY MUCH.
although they allow you to avoid rounding, inaccuracies and overflows are MUCH better than intas.

what and where to use is up to you.
depends on the specific locations.
and whether there will be a brake on not the coolest hardware.
or you focus only on top-end hardware.

if in doubt - conduct tests, experiments, speed measurements.

what exactly where to use - without tests and experiments, you will know in advance only with experience.

the problem i dont even use this

angelboy21 · 9 Eki 2022

this maybe cause a ping issue enviroment

I don't think so but i don't use it before

64bit good

75hzAmine · 12 Eki 2022

64bit int uses alot of RAM

jokermax20 · 12 Eki 2022

if u have more than 8g ram u have to use 64bit any way

There is no definitive answer to this question as it depends on a variety of factors, including the specific game engine being used and the nature of the float values being passed. In general, however, changing variables and events to 64-bit integers should not cause any significant burden on the server, and may actually improve performance in some cases.

better use 64 bit

akashk767 · 24 Eki 2022

64 bit always

numanansari01 · 24 Eki 2022

i dont know about this

EGYXOSMAN · 24 Eki 2022

i'm useing 64 but my ram is good i have ram 8
How many ram do you have?

Repow12e31 · 24 Eki 2022

64 bit very nice

Its right windows for games
