You can just send the server a number to pong to you, test with this. Code: on ^*:pong:{ if ($2 isnum) { echo -s SERVER lag is $calc($ticks - $2) ms. halt } } then just type //ping $ticks that will work out the lag in miliseconds.

Once you have both times, I would think subtracting them could tell you the server lag of the other user. BTW, starting the PING/PONG process will require this command unless you delete /ping from your aliases: //raw -q PING $ticks
