Message.AddVarULong Method

Namespace: Riptide

Assembly: RiptideNetworking.dll

AddVarULong(ulong)

Adds a positive number to the message, using fewer bits for smaller values.

public Message AddVarULong(ulong value)

Parameters

ulong

value

The value to add.

Returns

Message

The message that the value was added to.

Remarks

The value is added in segments of 8 bits, 1 of which is used to indicate whether or not another segment follows. As a result, small values are added to the message using fewer bits, while large values will require a few more bits than they would if they were added via AddByte(byte), AddUShort(ushort), AddUInt(uint), or AddULong(ulong) (or their signed counterparts).
