Read the description for more information.
We all know that the function of TPOnline is to emulate the in-store battle feature of the Initial D games. However, desyncs happen a lot more than you think.
This is because in-store battles expect flawless connections between the two cabs, and the emulation of that mode adds some bad ping to it, to the point where even a small amount of ping can lead to some desyncs.
This is why double wins and double forwards are very common. Both clients simply do not react enough for the other.
This ID8 battle between me and Falbere (from the other side of the world) shows this desyncs in action. This is not meant to talk ill of TPOnline, but to rather show the effects of online desync on the emulated in-store mode.
Thanks to Falbere (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZO881QtrUmOvNEgGkSIrQQ) for the recording and the races.
