This extension adds a cool feature called prediction! :D Basically with the smooth camera extension when ur character is falling fast the camera would by way higher than the player so the play is at the bottom of the screen. This extension using the fall speed and adds it to an offset n stuff

theres also multiple different easy ways to add a nice camera :D its very customizable

also supports multiple players
