When the connection drops, my game retries so fast that it makes things worse

A leaderboard or save request fails, the game tries again at once, again and again, and drains the battery while thousands of phones do the same to your server. This entry spaces the retries sensibly, spreads them out, and stops retrying what can never work.

Why this works

Waiting longer after each failure gives a struggling server room to recover, and a random share of the wait keeps all phones from coming back in the same second.

When not to use it

Skip retries for actions the player must confirm again anyway, such as a purchase; ask instead of repeating it silently.
