Prediction

Use prediction to manage latency in your game.

Topic	Description
Introduction to prediction	Client prediction allows clients to use their own inputs to locally simulate the game, without waiting for the server's simulation result.
Prediction in Netcode for Entities	Implement client prediction in Netcode for Entities.
Prediction smoothing	The GhostPredictionSmoothingSystem system provides a way of reconciling and reducing prediction errors over time, to make the transitions between states smoother.
Prediction switching	Netcode supports opting into prediction on a per-client, per-ghost basis, based on some criteria (for example, predict all ghosts inside this radius of my clients' character controller). This feature is called prediction switching.
Prediction edge cases and known issues	When using client-side prediction, there are a few known edge cases you should be aware of.
