predictionmode ?

[hybrid creek]

there are two events called setpredictionmode and getpredictionmode on roblox studio, and im struggling to figure out what prediction even means in the context or roblox scripting,and the roblox offical page about it doesnt even work

I think, Get and SetPredictionMode say how the client predicts an object's movement or state before the server confirms it.

This could be wrong tho, this is how I understand it.

thanks, has it ever been used tho ?

[hybrid creek]

do you have any examples ?

[glossy fjord]

I've never used this before, why would you want to use it?

[hybrid creek]

just curious

Idk if you ever wanna use this, if people have a poor wifi connection and you make them predict too much ts could cause lots of rollbacks which won't look very nice.
