Quote:Those that are too far (out of sight) will not receive any messages from the player (except text messages). Does this sound fine?

Re-read my section about what happens when a player goes out of scope from another player, from being in scope. How will you handle that case?

Each server tick (100-200ms) the clients will receive details of all close clients. On the clients, if details are not received for a player a number of times (say 4) then the player is classed as out of scope and will not be processed. Wehn the player comes back into scope, close clients will start receiving messages again.
