+Title: Prediction
+
+The engine calls <modc_predict> when reprediction is required. This happens usally when new data has arrived from the server. <modc_predict> should to prediction from the current snapshot and current snapshot tick (<client_tick> + 1) upto and including the tick returned by <client_predtick>.
+
+Predicted input sent to the server can be retrived by calling <client_get_input> with the corresponding tick that you want the input for. Here is a simple example of how it might look.
+
+> void modc_predict()
+> {
+> 	int tick;
+> 	prediction_reset();
+> 
+> 	for(tick = client_tick()+1; tick <= client_predtick(); tick++)
+> 	{
+> 		MY_INPUT *input = (MY_INPUT *)client_get_input();
+> 		if(input)
+> 			prediction_apply_input(input);
+> 		prediction_tick();
+> 	}
+> }
