This is a tough one. In the end, having a slow connection will suck for
the client, no matter what you do. But there are a few neat tricks which

...in effect, the code the client is running is very similar, perhaps
identical, to that the server is running - it just knows a lot less about
the game world, and always defers to the server in case of disagreement.

I think you can choose sample times which will get you enough information
to work with: ie, if a certainly player has consistantly getting sharp
connection hangups which last multiple seconds with no packet
comminucation whatsoever, the game could choose to not let them into a
high-speed area (say, a quake-style arena), or it could be as simple as a
lag-o-meter that the player can check. That is to say, in a text mud
people have a very good feel for their connection, sine they see the
content of the packets arrive directly. Frequently people will say, "No,
I don't want to go to high-level area X right now...I'm lagging too hard
and will probably get into trouble." In a game which is translating
packets into more subtle data and doing motion prediction, the game
continues to run at 30fps even when there are no packets coming in. Thus
the player doesn't have a feel for what kind of lag they are in until they
start shooting at things and missing because they aren't where they think
they are.

I was futzing around with UDP a few months back after chatting with some
folks about it at CGDC. IMO as soon as you go to a non-text based system
where packets are more of an object-update style, UDP can solve a lot of
problems for you. I doesn't guarentee in-order devivery, or even delivery
at all. However, in a realtime simulation, you could care less about
where an object was ten seconds ago - what you care about is where it is
*now*, and waiting for the old packets that didn't make it to get resent
is a waste of time. Consider:
Buffy is flying her sandskimmer due east across the desert.
Boffo is observing.
Buffy veers to the left.
Server sends a packet to Boffo to indicate Buffy's new position and
direction of motion.
On the way to Boffo's machine, the server's update packet about Buffy's
position gets hung up.
Buffy veers to the right.
Server sends a new packet with Buffy's new position and direction of
motion.
At this point neither the client nor the server cares about that hung-up
packet making it through; but with TCP, you have to wait for it. With UDP
you can just forget about it.
This, of course, assumes that the objects complete state is stored in each
packet. If packets are more like state deltas (ie, "I just turned left",
"I just moved forward") this won't work.
Although this isn't terribly useful for a traditional text-based mud, you
could probably still get some net optimization with a custom client using
UDP, doing its own ack'ing. Sending messages in packet-sized chunks with
predictable id numbers (ie, each one is the previous id + 1), you could
avoid the massive resending you get with TCP when the net gets hung up,
since TCP actually restarts at the first unacked byte. If you packetized
it, you could queue up a set of received messages until ever message up to
a certain number has been received.
For example:
Server fires messages 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 to the client.
Client receives messages 1, 4, and 5. It sends a status message to the
server indicating it has recieved messages 2 - 3 and the highest message
it has received is 5. It outputs message 1 to the player and queues up 4
and 5.
Server resends 2 and 3.
Client receives 2 and 3 and outputs them to the user, along with 4 and
5 (since all the intervening packets have been resolved).
Server times out (highest packet received == 5, highest packet sent =6) and resends message 6.
I doubt this would be worthwhile if you're doing straight text, since
distribution a telnet which looks effectively just like telnet (to the
user) and works only with your mud and only for the platforms you happen
to have access to would be a big deterent from people playing your game.
But if you already have a client which is largely based on scrolling text
(such as that old TSN game, Shadow of Yserbius), you might as well.

I assume he meant a generic initialization file of some sort, the actual
format is probably not terribly relevant.
