Plasma Gun Aim Desync

Issue Description:
There seems to be some kind of desync issue where the game thinks im aiming higher than i really am after desyncing on a previous shot.

In the video provided, my screen jerks upwards as i shoot the trapper.
Then later shooting at the guardsman it jerks back downwards and i miss,
even though my reticle is right on target while the shot goes high as if i was aiming above.

This may be happening on other weapons but it is very noticable on plasma gun due to its very low rate of fire but im not sure.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Play Veteran.
  2. Use Plasma Gun (or others im not sure).
  3. Shoot and rarely your screen will jerk in a direction not related to recoil.
  4. Screen jerks back in sync(?) and shot goes off target, fixing your aim until bug happens again.

Platform:
Steam

Reproduction Rate:
Happens frequently enough to cause issue properly using the weapon but not every time.

I’ve noticed this too! I have put together a 2 min compilation of the times that it’s happened to me: https://youtu.be/dAPb6WY6kyo
I’m surprised that I haven’t seen more people talking about this with how many veteran players there are.
