Cheating Death did clipping calculations and seemed to work fine. 
Although CS maps tend to be a great deal less complicated than BF maps, 
so this may not be possible.

I meant as far as the minimap data goes. Either the minimap data is sent 
seperately or it's the same as the data you'd get to show someone on 
screen, at any rate, it should only send what's necessary to send, as 
mentioned above.

And in return, here's a nice article written by the author of CD, which 
may help clear things up slightly:
