Shots that clearly hit on my screen count as misses

By the time your shot reaches the host, the target has already moved on. The fix is to look at where the target was when you pulled the trigger, but too much of this lets players with a poor connection hit people who are safely behind a wall.

Why this works

The shooter aimed at a world that was already a little old by the time it reached their screen. Judging the shot against what they truly saw is the fair test, and a limit on the look-back stops one slow connection from reaching too far into the past.

When not to use it

Wrong for slow projectiles or for games where dodging is a skill the target must be rewarded for, since the hit lands after they had already moved. Check those against the live position instead.
