AI makes up shit that doesn't exist and lies to you. Sure, let's get the word salad generator to write all the code. What a great fucking idea.

In the game industry this is actually a positive thing. If you think that AI can write code better than you can, I'm not going to disagree with you, but maybe you should try getting better or more specialized at what you do, because I

Nah. Fix the bug in their NAT code and/or route around bad network performance by deploying more relays in the Middle East with different hosting providers. https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/features/multipla

If you want to get fancy you can track the last received input frame on the server and send it down to the client, then the client only needs to send inputs since the last asked input frame the server has seen.

One cool trick you could try (although you are probably doing it already) is to include all inputs for some long period (like 1-2 seconds!) in every input packet the client sends to the server. This way if one input packet gets lost, the ve

The thing the author is trying to solve for here is reducing the amount of CPU used on the client when it rolls back the simulation and re-simulates to keep server authority. He does this by only rolling back and re-simulating only a subset
