Beschreibung
Client-predicted, server-authoritative projectiles for Unreal Engine multiplayer. Fully exposed to Blueprints.
Deliver responsive projectile gameplay that feels instantaneous to players while maintaining full server authority, low bandwidth usage, and straightforward integration into existing Unreal Engine multiplayer projects.
Network Predicted Projectiles delivers responsive, low-bandwidth projectile gameplay without sacrificing server authority. The firing player sees projectiles launch instantly, while the server remains the sole authority over hit detection and damage. Projectile movement is simulated locally on every machine, which removes continuous movement replication and keeps network traffic to a minimum.
Add a component to your character, subclass a projectile, and start firing responsive multiplayer projectiles. No custom networking code required.
