Just create an entity and have it trace from it's current position to
the next position (current + velocity * dt + gravity * dt) each tick.
Unless you want the entity to have a physics hull or something, then
you'll need to increase the max allowable speed. You can do that by
modifying:
ConVar sv_maxvelocity ( "sv_maxvelocity","3500", FCVAR_REPLICATED,
"Maximum speed any ballistically moving object is allowed to attain per
axis." );
And physics_performanceparams_t ("vphysics/performance.h" -
physenv->SetPerformanceSettings() )
Note that higher maximum velocities may cause problems as none of our
games really push the limits there.
