Detailed Description

template<class T>
class cf::GameSys::VarInterpolatorT< T >

Linearly interpolates a value over a period of time.

The course of the interpolation is adapted/updated whenever a new reference value is set. This is mostly intended for game entities on clients, where we interpolate from the "current" value towards the reference value of the most recent server update. If the subsequent server update happens to arrive later than the one before it, our interpolation may (briefly) turn into an extrapolation for bridging the gap.
