cg_smoothClients
Smooths enemy movement interpolation when packets are delayed or lost. Off shows true server positions (best for hitscan accuracy); On reduces visual stutter on bad connections but can cause 'ghost' positions that feel off when shooting.
💡
Pro Tip
Leave it OFF — true server positions mean your rails and LG hits land exactly where the enemy actually is, not where the smoothing thinks they are.
