Client player movement

[fierce wind]

Post your movement code here and we can take a look at it

[orchid basin]

It appears to be an issue ONLY with any of the clients

The host works as programed

[jovial stirrup]

i think you probably want to send the actual movement distances not the inputs, as-is this will apply different amounts of movement if the deltatime isn't exactly the same on the server and client at all time

also watch out for sending RPCs in update without any rate limit, remember some people have 320hz monitors 😄

[fierce wind]

If you want things to be server authoritative, then when you send inputs, you also need to send the tick or timestamp the input happened. Then you can calculate the proper speed

[orchid basin]

lol best I've got is 144hz so for now imma stick to that until I need to improve

[jovial stirrup]

well you probably don't need to send movement updates 144 times a second either, just keep that in mind when you come to optimizing your bandwidth usage!

[orchid basin]

should I use a limited update?

like once every few secs

[orchid basin]

Never thought of that

[jovial stirrup]

it depends on how your game plays and how much bandwidth you want to dedicate to movement updates i guess, but yeah i would generally start by limiting it to x updates per second

[orchid basin]

Umm, so this only makes the client in the game run slower

[orchid basin]

The code has been modified and the code runs smoother than anticipated

[fierce wind]

Normally you would use fixed update to send inputs

[jovial stirrup]

did you fix the delta time problem?

[orchid basin]

Sorta? The game runs smoother now, with the exception that the client is still slower

[jovial stirrup]

what did you change?

[orchid basin]

I am not infront of the computer running it at the moment but Blackbox.ai detected that my code would cut off the final frame from the movement script causing the buffering/speed issue

This apperatly would only apply to anyone running the client and not the host

[jovial stirrup]

so you didn't read my original suggestion and pasted it into an AI instead...? i don't think i'm going to keep replying here haha

[orchid basin]

I used ur example to fix it

Tweaked my code

Than implement what you explained the issue was + the modified code to get an understanding of the issue

[orchid basin]

Fixed this manually though it was an issue, not the reason the issue was being caused

[orchid basin]

I'll send fixed code to show what they AI detected
