<cat>Code.Network</cat> <title>Lag Compensation</title> # Introduction Lag compensation happens server-side during `Simulate` and essentially rewinds lag compensated entities to the position they were in when the client being simulated sent their input commands. This means that traces will hit entities that the client would expect to be hit from their point-of-view. # Enabling If you want to enable it for any entities, such as a pawn, you can simply set the `EnableLagCompensation` property to true on that entity. This is usually does in the entity's `Spawn` method. If you want to enable it for any entities, such as a pawn, you can simply set the `EnableLagCompensation` property to true on that entity. This is usually done in the entity's `Spawn` method. # Usage Within `Simulate` you can do `using ( LagCompensation() ) { }` and within that scope the transforms of all eligible entities will be lag compensated. This means any traces or physics queries you run within that scope will yield the rewound positions and rotations for those entities. By default, the `BaseWeapon` class included in the base addon already has `PrimaryAttack` and `SecondaryAttack` enclosed in a block just like this.
