Hi, it depends if you want server-side ping measurement or client-side only.

If you want server-side, then yes, you need to make your own custom implementation but, if you want it client-side, you can use the enableLagMonitor method of the SmartFox class and then listen to the pingPong event

Yes I dont understand how to use PingPong. I need a quick tutorial on it.
I read the Smartfox docs. still dont understand.

Do I do this? sfs.enableLagMonitor(enabled:true) or sfs.enableLagMonitor(true) or sfs.enableLagMonitor(enabled) .

and how would I set it all up. Any help?

Btw, my goal is to make the timing on both User screen exactly the same.
I need Ping to put Latency on the buttons to make the time both on the user screens.

to enable the lag monitor you do sfs.enableLagMonitor(true) and then you listen to the pingPong event by doing sfs.addEventListener(SFSEvent.PING_PONG, pingPongHandler).

To show it to the other user, you could, for example, store the lag value as an UserVariable.
