  Yo, haven't checked your mod in years, I'm glad to see you've still been working on it! I just tried a simple game with limited difficulty to get back to it, and saw the new Support Base Rift option (SB6). I really like the idea of having a temporary spawn appearing at a random location and making the game more difficult, while being relatively easy to deal with. However, on my two attempts, the first rift spawned near my base and because of the weapon it's using, there wasn't much I could do about it (playing with no base and no eco boost) It would be nice if there was an exclusion zone around player spawns to prevent that, or if the rift itself didn't have any weapon (I'm fine with enemy waves spawning at my doorstep, the rift defense weapon is the issue) Anyway thanks for the updates, your mod is still awesome! I especially like the new AI settings you made to set HQ locations right from the game menu!

  I have created a mod that dumps unit information and economy information into the game log. It is on the vault called unit logger. I created some python code that runs multiple instances of FAF at once on a linux server with this mod enabled and goers through a folder full of replays at high gamespeed generating this data. I created a seperate python program to parse out the log into an unitfile displaying "GameTick,Army,EntityId,UnitId,FractionComplete,Position.x,Position.y,Position.z,MaxHealth,Health,ShieldRatio,IsIdle,MassKilled" and an economy file displaying GameTick,Army,lastUseRequested.MASS,lastUseRequested.ENERGY,lastUseActual.MASS,lastUseActual.ENERGY,stored.MASS,stored.ENERGY,income.MASS,income.ENERGY,maxStorage.MASS,maxStorage.ENERGY,reclaimed.MASS,reclaimed.ENERGY This was done a year ago or so. I have processed 659 replays creating 12GB of CSV files (compressed to ~ 300mb) of unit positions with time, player economies, and if players won or lost. From this data you can absolutley get insight into what units built at what time correlate to a win. If you would like this data please message me. https://forum.faforever.com/topic/7746/unit-logger-mod?_=1756499882431

  Thanks, I'll make a note to have a look. Generally though AIs are much easier to beat on smaller maps compared to larger maps, one reason being players will usually be better with microing their ACU and have fewer parts of the map to focus on at once e.g. I'm around 1k rated 1v1 and can comfortably beat M28 on 5km maps, but on 10km maps can only occasionally win.
