tags:: architecture - continuous?? - there are discrete "snapshots" of time, and any point in time between 2 snapshots can be computed purely based on the previous snapshot and the elapsed time - the timestamp of the next tick should also be able to be determined based on the previous snapshot, or by interrupts by user events - this allows clients to interpolate the current state based on their "view" of the previous snapshot - account for clock drift between clients / network jitter? -Sctoor - #references {{video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqhhFl5zgA0}}
