Activation
This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.
Server-authoritative tick system for multiplayer games with lag compensation, anti-cheat validation, and deterministic physics. Prevents speed hacks and teleports while keeping gameplay fair for high-latency players.Key capabilities
- →Implement fixed tick rate loop
- →Validate player inputs
- →Apply lag compensation
- →Track violation decay
- →Broadcast game state
How it works
It runs a server-authoritative loop that validates inputs against physics constraints and uses position history to compensate for network latency.
Inputs & outputs
When to use server-tick
- →Sync player positions across clients
- →Implement server-side speed hack detection
- →Add lag compensation to projectile movement
About server-tick
This skill sets up a server-authoritative tick loop to process game logic, movement, and combat. It integrates deterministic physics checks and anti-cheat validation to ensure fair play despite network latency.
Server-authoritative tick system for multiplayer games with lag compensation, anti-cheat validation, and deterministic physics. Prevents speed hacks and teleports while keeping gameplay fair for high-latency players.
When not to use it
- →For turn-based games
- →For single-player games without network requirements
Prerequisites
Limitations
- →Requires tuning tick rate for specific game types
- →Lag compensation window is limited to 200ms
How it compares
It provides a deterministic server-side authority model instead of trusting client-side state.
