Ping on HUD

Hello evyrone !
When I last looked at the changelog of DDNet client I saw that there has been added cl_showpred function to show the prediction time on screen when playing. I think that would be cool if you add similar thing with ping on screen, so that you don't have to press tab everytime you want to check your ping.

I think it is just that...
It might not add up to the number shown in tab because tab-ping isnt real
Clshowpred is real ping

I don't think cl_showpred shows real ping. I just tried it with my server and I should have 1 ping. Instead, it showed 16.

It shows how much delayed you see other tees. That's more useful than your ping because Teeworlds always adds a bit to the ping for smoother prediction.

You probably use v-sync.
