# CloudyGamer
#
# CURRENTLY WRITTEN FOR PAPERSPACE (see link above for additional azure/aws items)
# based off of: https://github.com/lg/cloudy-gamer/blob/master/cloudygamer.psm1
#
# troubleshooting:
# 1. latency spikes:
#   - if hooked up to an external monitor, disconnect
#   - if on wifi, try wired
#   - if wired and on a fancy switch, turn on/off congestion control on the port
#   - try with/without vpn (ex zerotier), steam will sometimes try to relay you
#   - ensure you've enabled hardware encoding/decoding on the server/client
#   - disable location services on macos
#   - try bringing down the resolution in game
#   - if monitor, turn off retina and bring res down to save usbc bandwidth
#   - make sure you did the stuff below (i.e. turn off: firewall, ipv6,
#     windows updates, windows defender, default video card, etc)
# 2. no audio:
#   - start a game on steam via streaming so it'll install the necessary audio driver
