Who holds the "truth" about the objects, the server or one of the clients 
(depending on which object)? (basically, is it peer-to-peer or client 
server)

How do user interactions change the network state of the objects? If I 
drive my car into a pile of boxes, what is propagated to the server, and 
what is in turn propagated to the clients?

Any links to your project?
