Hey all, been a LONG time since I was here.
Glad to see there still some action in the Q2 world!

I just getting back into Q2 and Kingpin and am wracking my brain looking 
for the command to simulate lag / ping.

Idea is for playing local with robots so I keep my online skills up. Too 
big a diff going from 0 ping (local) to my normal 100 or so(online). 
Throws me all off.

Thanks for help.  Keep on fraggin!

yah, Kingpin nice game too.  Kinda a step closer to HalfLife.  and funny 
as all get-out!  Love the comments/swears.

I use to know a command that would let you set an artificial ping for 
playing against EraserBot in Q2 (or other robots).  I've been looking 
for it EVERYWHERE! I guess I never wrote it down.. not even in my eraser 
config. Allways typed it in console in-game (doh!).

Allready found the timenudge for Q2, but that don't help : (

I know someone here has this command using up a couple grey cells 
somewhere in back of thier brain.

Ok, stupid me.. I guess 'cmd lag "n"' ONLY works in EraserBot.  What was 
I saying about brain cells?  Seems like there is no direct Push_Latency 
in Quake2 / Kingpin.  I wonder how the boys at Impact did this with Eraser?
Guess I'm gonna have to brush up on my C language skills and make my own 
mod.  : (   unless.. anyone hered of a simple way to simulate lag?

Sory for trouble.. was worth a shot.   Keep on fraggin!  -DreadDave
