I'm unclear if this belongs in this channel or #i2p-dev, but I'm looking into the viability of using I2P as a privacy layer for a multiplayer game I'm developing. To do this, I would need to create single-hop tunnels with exclusively low-latency routers (ideally those in close geographic proximity to the user). Is this possible to do via API? After reading the reference client and i2pd documentation, I could not d

ble of controlling tunnel creation to such a degree.

explicitPeers in tunnel config

I noticed that under the I2CP controls, but I couldn't find anything in the documentation that would let me get a list of known routers or their latency. Would I need to modify the daemon itself?
orignal
there is no such thing

if you wish you should implement own profiling
aisle
I wasn't aware profiling methodology could be changed piecemeal, I'll look into that immediately.

nobody uses "low-latency routers" because it's a risk for anonymity
aisle
Thankfully only weak anonymity is required for my purposes. Large scale deanonymization attacks are out of scope for most multiplayer games, but I'm hoping that I can accomplish this without straying too far from the beaten path so the routers used for the game can still benefit the network as a whole.

then make tunnels of zero length

if you don't need anonymity
aisle
Anonymity is still required, just weak. The threat model is protecting against other players, not nation states.
