Summary0000517: No thrust prediction for Archvile attacks & rocket jumps
DescriptionYou can't rocket jump or use the Archvile jump trick properly if you have a high ping (300 ms) in Skulltag. You simply shake and warp around. You also don't see any z-thrusting locally. It works a lot better in ZDaemon under the same circumstances.
Steps To Reproduce
Additional InformationBTW: The DropItem prediction works in ZDaemon.

I'd say that this is certainly not a bug but a missing feature. It may also be very complicated to get this working since the client would need to predict the damage in order to be able to predict the thrust. Client side damage prediction is a completely new concept and may require fundamental changes.

I can assure you that this is a very needed feature in the long run. I'm surprised to see that there isn't any client-side prediction implemented for some of the basic vanilla features.

BTW: Any news on'http://www.skulltag.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=155&t=26509 [^]' ? IGPack and the SpaceDM series will not play as intended until there is some client-side prediction implemented for ThrustThing(Z).

It turns out that the perceived issue was actually a bug in the client prediction that keeps the player movement smooth on moving floors. It works a lot better now.

I'm going to turn this into a bug report again and mark it as resolved.
