Or have bullets function on the server side, which is essentially what you're saying but without doing any major scripting changes. But that's been done a couple of times before and the idea seems sound in principle, but the implementation of it has never lasted very long. The problem is the server location geometrically. No amount of scripting genius can account for every single person's lag and smooth it out to make it look seemless to everybody connected.
