You don't have to lead targets... hit registration is still client-side. The server just VERIFIES that it could be a valid hit.

I was on a really laggy wireless connection recording that and the whole time I had no issues with registration.

Aksel, I don't mean to sound like a troll when I suggest that you stop suggesting these things before you make yourself seem even more newbish, but I think it needs to be said.

The only way to fix the problem is not to have server-side hit detection in the first place.

@Ben: Ahhhhhh.... that clears that up.

One pointless debate closed. Thanks for explaining, Ben!

@b

Now I am confused. Explain.

who is bcoolface and how does it say key master

That's Ben Aksoy, the game's creator.

...I'm beginning to think at this point that Aksel is just trolling...

oh sorry bcoolface i hail you

Yay! I don't have to lead shots!

No 1337101, he's just a very slow individual.

Hm...I don't understand this. If the server needs to verify first if a certain shot hits or not doesn't it mean that it takes the duration of a ping until the shot gets valid?
So if the client still decides that a shot hits an enemy and if the effect immediately makes an impact on my screen (and the enemies screen) what does the server verify then? The hit already happend, the client already decided that it's valid, the enemy already got decreased health - what happens when the server says 100ms later: "No, that shot missed the enemy."? Does he get his health back? ;)

I'm confused. Pls help meh.
