In this episode, we’re going to cover:
- Fake swimming animation — Forcing the player to swim when outside of water or even when flying by using a special trick.
- Sending fake block updates — How to send fake block data to a certain player without editing the map.
- Optimizing lag in PlayerMoveEvent — A more efficient way to listen for player movement.
