[sldev] Client-side prediction

[Nexii Malthus]

Heya,

I written a quick article about a theoretical implementation that I had been
baffling on about for a while now.

I realized that moving the 2D representation to 3D space is a bit more
complex than the picture gives. But it should still work if you work from
each of the 3D planes and apply to the XYZ values individually kinda, I
think, not sure if that phrases well or makes sense.
