UDP problems

Client issues like people walking at the door and never showing up where they are correctly "lagging". Simplest fix is to put these UDP options under an "advanced/expert" settings area. Few people use mic's on graal, and when they do they say the codec isn't all that good yet. Could have a note in the readme on how to use a microphone on graal and tell them all how to "re-enable" udp.

It would not be a bad idea to tell them they need a certain port forward to their computer for the proper UDP options.

Back in 1999 the UDP thing has been added to speed up the game because the servers were sometimes quite laggy. Now it's not that important anymore since the servers are quite fast, also more people are behind proxys/firewalls/nats now so they have problems with peer-to-peer udp.
Right now the UDP is needed for the microphone thing though, but we plan to change the microphone to use server-based communication.
