Based on the age of the game, the sensors are either Isotraks or Trackers. 60 samples/sec/sensor. A 2-player game will have sensor lag on the order of 100-120ms. At least 60ms of that is due to round-robin synchronization. -- Chris Shaw University of Alberta cdshaw@cs.UAlberta.ca CatchPhrase: Bogus as HELL !
