Hello! I was wondering if anyone has a solution for the problem I am having.
I want to create a multiplayer online game with little to no buffer between clients. The problem is that when I am using this plugin it has issues with objects not always aligning on both screens before then jumping to the position on the other clients screen to catch up. I don't really know anything about online coding and was wondering if knows how to fix this method or knows a better one.

The plugin I am using is at this website: https://gmnet-engine.org/engine/
It's called Gmnet engine

Ahh. You are new to this, aren't you? :)

Buffers is the head ingredient when sending messages from one player to another. With some practice you will know what to do.

You need to create a network architecture that handle this. You can check my tutorial on GMnet and create a server-is-king. It will help you align and move objects between players.
