Abstract
A method for handling user input loss from a client device to a remote server using user datagram protocol (UDP), includes receiving a newly generated user input command at the client device, removing a previously generated user input command located at a front of the ring buffer from the ring buffer, shifting one or more other previously generated user input commands towards the front of the ring buffer, placing the newly generated user input command at an end of a ring buffer, and sending a first ring buffer message containing the one or more other previously generated input commands and the newly generated user input command to the remote server.
