</description>
</method>
<method name="compress">
<return type="void" />
<argument index="0" name="mode" type="int" enum="ENetConnection.CompressionMode" />
<description>
Sets the compression method used for network packets. These have different tradeoffs of compression speed versus bandwidth, you may need to test which one works best for your use case if you use compression at all.
[b]Note:[/b] Most games' network design involve sending many small packets frequently (smaller than 4 KB each). If in doubt, it is recommended to keep the default compression algorithm as it works best on these small packets.
[b]Note:[/b] The compression mode must be set to the same value on both the server and all its clients. Clients will fail to connect if the compression mode set on the client differs from the one set on the server.

Call this before [method connect_to_host] to have ENet connect using DTLS with [code]certificate[/code] and [code]hostname[/code] verification. Verification can be optionally turned off via the [code]verify[/code] parameter.

Waits for events on the host specified and shuttles packets between the host and its peers. The returned [Array] will have 4 elements. An [enum EventType], the [ENetPacketPeer] which generated the event, the event associated data (if any), the event associated channel (if any). If the generated event is [constant EVENT_RECEIVE], the received packet will be queued to the associated [ENetPacketPeer].
Call this function regularly to handle connections, disconnections, and to receive new packets.

<constants>
<constant name="COMPRESS_NONE" value="0" enum="CompressionMode">
No compression. This uses the most bandwidth, but has the upside of requiring the fewest CPU resources. This option may also be used to make network debugging using tools like Wireshark easier.
</constant>
<constant name="COMPRESS_RANGE_CODER" value="1" enum="CompressionMode">
ENet's built-in range encoding. Works well on small packets, but is not the most efficient algorithm on packets larger than 4 KB.
</constant>
<constant name="COMPRESS_FASTLZ" value="2" enum="CompressionMode">
[url=https://fastlz.org/]FastLZ[/url] compression. This option uses less CPU resources compared to [constant COMPRESS_ZLIB], at the expense of using more bandwidth.
</constant>
<constant name="COMPRESS_ZLIB" value="3" enum="CompressionMode">
[url=https://www.zlib.net/]Zlib[/url] compression. This option uses less bandwidth compared to [constant COMPRESS_FASTLZ], at the expense of using more CPU resources.
</constant>
<constant name="COMPRESS_ZSTD" value="4" enum="CompressionMode">
[url=https://facebook.github.io/zstd/]Zstandard[/url] compression. Note that this algorithm is not very efficient on packets smaller than 4 KB. Therefore, it's recommended to use other compression algorithms in most cases.
</constant>

<constant name="EVENT_DISCONNECT" value="2" enum="EventType">
A peer has disconnected.
