I just hosted my first online game in CFS (yeah, I know, but I usually fly EAW) and had a problem with warping. Can anyone give some tips on how I might correct this problem or point me to where I might find resources for troubleshooting online games?

What was the problem, exactly. There should not be any warping online, but if you sometimes see planes seeming to warp, it is usually because of lag, that is because of transmission delays, the positions are not updated often enough.

Problem was, everytime I got close to my opponent, his plane would warp away from mine. I assume you are correct that this is due to positions not being updated often enough. Is there something I can due to correct the problem? Are other games such as, EAW or SDOE less prone to this? I have 56K modem. Thanks for the reply.
