*If the performance of an Internet game seems poor, look at the ping between you and other players. Zukai displays ping on the scoreboard when you press the mp_score button (see "Bindable actions" section), but if you want more rigorous measurement of the connection between yourself and another player, bring up Spotlight in macOS and start typing "Network Utility". When the Utility appears, open it and use the Ping tab to test the connection between you and them. The most important numbers in the final statistics, once pinging is done, are the packet loss, which should be 0-1%, the average ping ("round-trip avg", the third-to-last number), and jitter ("stddev", the last number), which should be less than 25% of the average ping. | *If the performance of an Internet game seems poor, look at the ping between you and other players.
