changedInstead of syncing full animations over the network, we’re sending only actions (like casting a spell or attacking), and each client plays the animation locally. This approach keeps everything synchronized while significantly reducing network load.

addedOn top of that, we’ve added the first version of spell animations visible to other players !

removedWhat you do is no longer just local - now everyone can actually see your actions in the world.

changedThis is an important step toward making the game feel more alive and responsive in multiplayer.

changedMore improvements coming soon!
