In this tutorial I will show you how to add an input buffer to animations so that players can input an action before they are allowed to be processed according to gameplay rules. This kind of system will help a lot in making your inputs feel less janky.
This is basically a "How to remove JANK with one SIMPLE TRICK!" video, without all the clickbait, course selling and shouting like we're 5-year-olds.
