Hello, so im making an interaction system with a progress bar. And the problem is that. It just offset the exact time and the time im tracking. So I dont know how to do. Anyone got an idea? Please help!

Most of the time its actually done locally and then the server is fired upon completion, this removes the delay between the client and the server.
