In table, predicted forward, rolled back In table and FTYPEDESC_INSENDTABLE -- controlled by server value which has been networked, error checked In table and not FTYPEDESC_INSENDTABLE -- rolled forward and back, but not received from server, so no error checking In table, but FTYPEDESC_PRIVATE -- introspectable (cl_pdump) but not rolled forward/back or error checked (may or may not be networked) -- not part of prediction really
Not in table Unrelated to prediction, not rolled forward back, etc. (rendering variables, e.g.) All of the logic for rewind/prediction is in client .dll in prediction.cpp and in prediction_copy.cpp and c_baseentity.cpp, etc... -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tom Edwards Sent: Wednesday, August 12, 2009 2:07 PM To: hlcoders Subject: [hlcoders] Prediction table questions I'm unclear on what the prediction table actually achieves. Here is what I think might be happening: *In table:* * Prediction error if too far out when next update arrives * Memorised when the prediction system rewinds, and restored afterwards *Not in table: * * Not checked for prediction accuracy * Can be operated on multiple times as the prediction system rewinds o Test prediction->IsFirstTimePredicted() to avoid this Is this at all accurate? Is there anything else? And: * What does it mean to have a var that is the network table but not the prediction table? * What decides which functions get rewound? _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
