Hey guys I just have a couple questions that require some clarification after reading the wiki and searching.
1. In UE3 games I've played there's two types of projectiles I've noticed: Projectiles where the location is actually where it is on the server (not simulated by the client), and projectiles that are simulated by the client and sometimes NOT where they actually are on the server. The server side projectiles are accurate, but if the player has high ping, it will be awhile before the shot is registered; while if it's simulated, it's on their client as soon as they click but isn't where the projectile actually is. Which variables are set that decide the projectiles behavior? Is this set with "bNetTemporary", "RemoteRole", or something else?
2. If I want to set a delay on the projectile animation before it appears on the players client (eg they shoot a rocket, walk off a bit and then the rocket spawns on where it was shot originally a couple seconds later) is this done with Delay and DelayLow variables in the ParticleSystem class? Or is this even possible at all?
All help is much appreciated.
