// high-level, socket-less networking api. inspired by Quake, MPI and RenderBuckets theories.
// - rlyeh, public domain
//
// Usage:
// 1. configure networked memory buffers with flags (world, player1, player2, etc). network_buffer();
// 2. then during game loop:
//    - modify your buffers as much as needed.
//    - sync buffers at least once per frame. network_sync();
//    - render your world
// 3. optionally, monitor network status & variables. network_get();
//
// @todo: maybe network_send(msg) + msg *network_recv(); instead of event queue of network_sync() ?
