Okay so I've been researching this movement flickering issue. I compiled some client network sniffs of the movement data and flattened them out. Each time I observed a flicker used a macro that `/say here` so I could see if there are any strange position data sent to the client from our core. Not sure if there is anything strange happening.

Key Observations:

• There are time spikes of around 200ms to 500ms when the "flicker" occurs.
• Predominantly observed when moving the players orientation while moving forward (left <-> right, opcode: MSG_MOVE_SET_FACING).
• Most of the flickers contain a jump in their X coordinate significantly larger than the previous trends, the same can be seen with the Y coordinate in some cases.

General Notes:

First movement packets show a high Time (probably our own movement):

Further Tests:
I tested to see if the MSG_MOVE_SET_FACING packets observed on the client match the number of calls to the server, checking if they match 1:1 and they do. 100 packets from the client result in 100 calls to and from the server. (can post results later)
