So forgive me for not knowing the term, but there’s a type of attack that waits to send commands until after packets have been received whose data provides an advantage. For instance, a bot could simply wait until it receives the position of your opponent, calculate how far to turn the player to aim, then tell the server “I’ve moved the mouse in this vector”

A bit like playing rock-paper-scissors, but waiting until you opponent shows what they’ve chosen before making your own decision.
