Technical breakdown

Responsive, server-authoritative interaction under latency

01

Prediction

A local visual proxy responds immediately to movement, rotation, distance, and throw input.

02

Authority

The server validates ownership, targets, acceleration, throw velocity, and request rate.

03

Reconciliation

Acknowledged inputs are removed and prediction errors blend toward authoritative snapshots.

04

Network lab

Built-in latency, jitter, packet-loss presets, server ghost, correction line, and error graph.

Responsibilities

What I built.

  1. 01Separated immediate local presentation from server-owned gameplay state.
  2. 02Implemented sequenced inputs, acknowledgements, snapshot processing, correction blending, and error tracking.
  3. 03Built server validation, rate limiting, controlled exploit tests, artificial latency, and a live networking dashboard.
