The original code that checks for FOV is ment for low velocity gameplay and also is just as bad as your reproduction. What you really want is to lag compensate all enemy players all of the time. The performance would be negligible as it just restores variables for previous postions/rotation/animations ect. You creating a poor version of the already bad design for high velocity modes is just silly when you are trying to fix lag compensation.

The 2 solutions you recommended by other people aren't aplicable. Push fix may help solve interpolation issues while on fast booster ramps, but that is a rare case to fix and isn't going to improve a whole lot. The 1 tick bullet displacement wont really matter if the tick_count method is still used without frametime data for when the player shot his weapon. You are you just going to move the player forwards and shift the problem that still exists. This patch also introduces horrible ghost knives that never hit the enemy player. These 2 will not solve the interpolation issues i explained in the post above. You should read it again.

Also since the hitboxes are larger, more pellets will hit when they aren't supposed to, allowing sniping and more damage with shotguns.

The bug you are refering to is when player models arent installed correctly on the server. So clients are seen as giant red and black error boxes and touch triggers they normally wouldn't. This would also explain what you showed in that old video. When server owners switch servers and forget to install the assets, this could happen.

So this is just 1 instance which isn't accurate as i just had access to the dedicated server and wrote plugins for free in my spare time and installed them on the servers. There was no purchase of this plugin nor did i distribute the plugin which required including source code. This was an actively development server i uploaded plugins to I was writing directly for testing.
The `case` guy didn't even buy the plugin from me. It appears he was just given the .smx file from someone else that bought it. That's why he has no source code and asks if you can just decompile the smx he sent you (which you also didn't pay for).

I was never paid full time by any community though? It's amazing how you know more about me then I do. Almost like you are making things up ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
