Unfortunately that's the way things work. Shutdown() must exit quickly, so any
shutdown message will be a best-effort only. If the packets are lost en route,
there's nothing to do about it.

So may I pretend that on real network with real latency, the result will be
same with only using Shutdown()?

If the shutdown message is lost due to packetloss, it will not be resent - ie.
the connection will time out. If ordering shutdown is very important, create
your manual shutdown message and send it reliably; but you must not shut down
the application until you have confirmation that the client has shut down and
no more resends needs to be done.

Ok, i can live without it. I was just supprised about theat if I set some
relatively small latency (only latency no packet loss), that it doesnt arrive
at all. When I was testing on WLAN (latency < 50ms), any shutdown sent arrived
properly. Thats why I thought its some bug in simulating latency. Anyway thanks
for clarification

Ah... THAT is probably an issue (sim latency, not loss) - Shutdown will turn
off netpeer heartbeat, which is needed to push out delayed packets. OTOH it
will also shut down the socket, so we cannot even send the messages later. It
would probably be best to push out all delayed packets when shutting down.

Flushing delayed messages on NetPeer shutdown added in 294
