Yes, that's it... Actually if the client allow the player to move
without asking the Server vefore, it's because the client-side
reaction would be too long...

But for example if the user asks to go on his right, then: 

  - the client suppose he can do it, so go on the right 

  - alert the server of its action 

  - if it's ok, the server retains the new position, else it sets
  the correct one and sends it to the client.

I suppose I would do it this way...
