Lag in variables

Will we always be cursed with lag on cloud variables? Is their any way to synchronize two players?

Lag in variables

What kind of lag is it anyway does it only refresh every x ammount of time, or do numbers just come 2 seconds late.

Lag in variables

It refreshes every 2 seconds I think, and lag is made worse by poor internet connections.

It only refreshes every 1~2 seconds, which can be bad for projects that need speed. This can also cause some values to conflict with each others during updating, causing cloud variables to revert at times.

Anyway, if you'd like to read a bit on cloud vars, I'd recommend this article: Cloud Data

Thanks for the link! I just discovered that today! I really wish I had known that we had a wiki before today. How silly of me!
