If you want even more accurate results (which for an FPS I suggest), then whenever the Client sends the RPC to the sever to fire, also send the current ‘crosshair direction’. This is because the server’s copy will be slightly out of date and inaccurate. To prevent cheating, you can get the server to validate it by checking if it’s close enough to the server copy (if it’s too different, just use server direction).

Latency will have a huge impact on this unless you implement something akin to Rewind Time. Essentially character buffering. You’ll also need a solid network clock. UE’s default implementation can be off by a sec~.

Average latency in most shooters is around 80ms. Yet you will have quite a few players with 100ms+. It’s not uncommon to see a good chunk of the players on a server with pings over 200 and up to 500ms.

Server provider/network/topology has a huge impact on this. Cloud vs DC rack etc.
