extends SceneTree
## Real integration test for NetworkClient (client-side prediction +
## reconciliation) against an actual dedicated server process.
##
## This does NOT boot its own server -- run scenes/server.tscn as a separate
## process first (see docs/architecture/networking.md's ENet/port setup):
##     godot --headless --path . scenes/server.tscn &
## then, from the same project directory:
##     godot --headless --path . --script res://scripts/smoke_test_network_client.gd
##
## Verifies: the client can actually connect over ENet, local prediction
## moves the player immediately on input (no waiting for the server),
## server snapshots actually arrive and update the client's authoritative
## view, and a deliberately-desynced predicted position gets corrected by
## reconciliation.
