[@spimortdev]

Thanks a lot! You were good in the video as well 😬

[@mindurownbussines]

Hey man
Cool video
Could you please point me to a tutorial where I can learn how to implement client-side prediction and lag compensation in Godot that works well over internet?
and btw is it easy ? 😁

[@spimortdev]

Thank you! 😁
It's not easy, doing real time in a game is never easy ☹️.
There are not much ressources for that specific to Godot, unfortunately. I had to figure out by myself a lot of stuff haha!
I took my inspiration mainly from this awesome source : www.gabrielgambetta.com/client-server-game-architecture.html
I know that now a days there is more than when I started my project and I think snopek games are doing that kind of stuff. You can look at it, but I did not validate if it works the same way I did it tho : gitlab.com/snopek-games/godot-rollback-netcode
Good luck 😃!

[@mindurownbussines]

@@spimortdev Thanks bro
I'm lazy , I'll go with unreal engine then 🤣

[@spimortdev]

@@mindurownbussines that's a fair choice! Doing a network game is not easy and unreal engine handles it really well so you should give it a try!

[@mindurownbussines]

@@spimortdev Yeah exactly.
Thanks for the time you dedicated to answer

[@hunterlepage]

Unity is literally loading simulator, it's not just you lol. I wanted to use Unity so bad over Godot due to the amount of tutorials there are for Unity, as well as the third party software that you can use for Unity, but I just couldn't handle it having to compile EVERY TIME I added a script

[@spimortdev]

I'm happy to see that I'm not the only one being annoyed by these awful loading! 😯
This is sad because you are right, Unity is the engine with the most amount of tutorials out there! What a shame! I don't know if it got worst over time or it was always that bad...
I gotta say tho, my project did progress quite a lot since this video (~1 year of progress) and I don't regret my choice to go with Godot!
The community is awesome and the engine is just fun to use overall! There might be more work to do or you need to be more imaginative if there is no tutorial out there about your topic but this is fun and satisfying to accomplish something 🙂
