Just send changes to all, using threadlist to get the threads and then the
connection object where you can send your data.
Use UDP server, to make sure that the send delay is as low as it can get.
You could loose packets, but it will only be seen on the clients as lagging.
Remember to make all computations for hits etc. on the server.
