This would be a great idea because it would solve the lag issues with minecraft in Client to server connections,
Minecraft Server to client connection is through TCP/UDP using P2S(Peer to Server)
if it was switched to Peer 2 Peer
here is a diagram:
Using P2P, it would increas a useage in bandwith, but would externally increase response.
Workarounds: What if someone Disconnected?
Answer: it would just drop the Host, and continue to constantly send packets back and forth.
Q: Isn't Torrent Software P2P?
A: Yes, this is exactly similar.
Q: is port forwarding needed?
A: This is a possibility, but is not confirmed, although torrent software seeds without any open ports, it might not be needed.
Q: Illegal?
A: No, P2P isnt illegal, the files hosted on the network is illegal, such as TPB.
Q: What if i have a slow connection?
A: then you might not notice much of an improvement, Speed Cap is a big issue when it comes to P2P when it comes to adjusting bandwidth
Q: PoD Dos'ing
A: this could be possible, but there would be easy workarounds for this issue as adjusting packet size and rate.

What would it look like if it was just in a view just for me?
