+ <description>
+ Configures throttle parameter for a peer.
+ Unreliable packets are dropped by ENet in response to the varying conditions of the Internet connection to the peer. The throttle represents a probability that an unreliable packet should not be dropped and thus sent by ENet to the peer. By measuring fluctuations in round trip times of reliable packets over the specified [code]interval[/code], ENet will either increase the probably by the amount specified in the [code]acceleration[/code] parameter, or decrease it by the amount specified in the [code]deceleration[/code] parameter (both are ratios to [constant PACKET_THROTTLE_SCALE]).
+ When the throttle has a value of [constant PACKET_THROTTLE_SCALE], no unreliable packets are dropped by ENet, and so 100% of all unreliable packets will be sent.
+ When the throttle has a value of 0, all unreliable packets are dropped by ENet, and so 0% of all unreliable packets will be sent.
+ Intermediate values for the throttle represent intermediate probabilities between 0% and 100% of unreliable packets being sent. The bandwidth limits of the local and foreign hosts are taken into account to determine a sensible limit for the throttle probability above which it should not raise even in the best of conditions.
