Multiplayer: Predict running out of items while placing them

Post by henke37 »

Rather simple thing to do: have the client assume that it won't magically get new items and be able to build more than you have in your pockets.

Can you be more specific, please? Case there are some mods, which do already similar things and perhaps your idea is better how to show that, but we cannot know in another way. :)
Cool suggestion: Eatable MOUSE-pointers.

I am talking of how when I am placing items the game assumes that placements succeed, but a 200 ms or so later realizes that I ran out of items and undoes the placement.

This is for multiplayer.
