2 years ago hi evolucid. Unfortunately this is a problem with the lighthouse tracking in general, and the trackers just exacerbate it. Any game that provides more control for faster movement does so at the cost of a lot of assists or success prediction or delayed behavior. Typically the example people use is beat saber - and the answer is that it the tracking skews there just as much, but the way it skews mostly just makes your saber longer. That doesn't make you miss the cube...but for table tennis, that skew is really bad. Stop by the discord and i'll be happy to chat in more detail. You can also read up a lot of work about this issue here https://github.com/carrotstien/ElevenVRPlatformIssues/issues/1

TLDR: it's a steamvr problem. I've reached out to them multiple times and they have given the proverbial shrug.

The issue is only with the trackers and only with this game. It is easily demonstrable by holding the paddle with my arm straight and twisting my wrist while keeping it in place. It tracks accurately at slow speed, but if I speed up the twisting of my wrist the in-game paddle reacts wildly, flying out away from my wrist.
The result of this is that I can't swing the paddle fast at all. If I do, the action of the in game paddle is randomized. I have to just play defensively and redirect shots to be able to play effectively. Now with the Tracker 3.0 (which is supposed to be more accurate), even that has a randomness to it.
