but seriously my tank was trying to put some distance between it and the enemy (range based wep). used all of the fuel (need 3 more for full fuel, but still a lot)...and then the screen "jumps" and it felt as if something forcibly dragged my tank back to its original position. not only was the timer going down ... 8 seconds left...but also no more fuel. wtf?!?! scary af
This happens, it's lag of course. The best way to avoid it is to not use all your fuel at once. Try letting go of A or D at times when moving.
Right, if you didn't change your angles while you were moving and then it jumps you back, your shot would still work. The game doesn't update your position if you keep moving (just only to you obviously), that's why it takes you back. Like using supplies while moving for example... If I or the game 'lagged', I would be back to where all the supplies are dropping. Aside from that, I've been told it was, so..
