Halo sends positional updates for other players every 5 seconds or so. It also sends their control mask (i.e. turning, walking, jumping) every tick. Increase those position updates would decrease explosion warp (but will also increase bandwidth requirements)
 
Realistically, explosions shouldn't cause warp, but there seems to be a bug in the explosion packet. 

This may be completely wrong, but no lead doesn't correct player locations. It simply temporarily "rewinds" the player locations on the server to detect whether a bullet actually hit a player or not.

Did you increase the frequency of the local player update packet? If you also increase the floating point precision it might warp less

I don't remember their lifespan in crashtest but in forge it is 15-30 seconds and I didn't have any issues with them yet. The only problem is that scenery/vehicles need to have accurate collision models or else you will have floating bullet holes.

With over 400 spawned objects I had around 70 fps, which is more than I get in Bigass.

So you are all probably wondering how this all works. Basically, an invisible vehicle spawns a scenery object. The rest is lua magic that only wizard giraffe understands. Everything is done through chat commands like "/spawn tower" but that can be simplifier by using program called AutoHotkey which will enter commands instantly when you press hotkeys. Since there is 512 vehicle limit in Halo, you can have that many forge objects in the map (unless you also have actual vehicles which would reduce that number). Right now there are 36 different objects that can be spawned and of course there will be more. You can suggest or make your own objects that you want to be spawnable in the map.

Electron has joined a standard vanilla server on the left (he's one of the red guys). On the right, I have joined the same server. The video shows what the game looks like according to Electron.
TL;DR - Electron can join and play on vanilla servers.

I am really looking for this. If this actually works, I will make some coop maps once I'm done with forge world.

Like this?
 
 
Sorry for bad quality. YouTube downscaled my video all the way to 360p.
 
edit: A scoring system would be pretty useful, here, similar to Firefight.

I put this together in about half an hour. It uses a SAPP plugin, a .dll, a HaloMD extension (could be rewritten for Halo PC/CE), and a very simple client-side mod made from Eschaton. I don't know if SAPP's no-lead will work with this, since it's not a player. Location and rotation are both sent to the clients currently.
