Module net_sync

Types of syncing:

• synced from any entity (within range)
• synced only from the client’s entity

Types of updating

• Plain copy of the new component state
• (unimplemented) Diff to update component, two variants
  • Keep a full copy of the component and generate diff from that
  • Intercept changes to the component (no need to compute diff or keep a full copy)

NOTE: rapidly updated components like Pos/Vel/Ori are not covered here
