Game Programming Patterns develops a similar loop from a slightly different angle. Neither shows a hybrid loop with both fixed and variable update steps like eg. Unity uses, but it's easy enough to insert a variable step after the fixed steps & interpolation but before rendering, if that's how you want to go. | |

Could you post some sort of pseudocode/template that could be generically followed? The one I currently 'implemented' had been bits and pieces from all over the web, hence the reason why I didn't get it right. Conceptually, I may be a little far off as well. | |
