Is there any bullet propf open source middleware for this any more?

The grammar is pretty bad, but good for a presumably non-native english user. Overall, it's a good article, especially when you consider that it's free. Game network code and predictive motion and rollback or input delay-based approaches are all fascinating to me. It is a hard problem to deal with network latency in a way that feels real-time and doesn't break a game.
