Description

The SnapshotSender class is the base class that objects should inherit from if they need to send snapshot data to client machines in a multiplayer game. Snapshots are sent by the Message Manager at the interval set by the MessageMgr::SetSnapshotInterval function. When a snapshot is sent, the SnapshotSender::SendSnapshot function is called for each snapshot sender that is currently registered. (A subclass of SnapshotSender must override this function.) A snapshot sender is registered by calling the MessageMgr::AddSnapshotSender function.

Base Classes

ListElement<SnapshotSender> Used internally by the Message Manager.
