RE: Formation Speed Bonus

@Jip has been working on a change to formation mechanics that should make them far easier to use. I don't know how close it is it to release

RE: Build templates created no longer save when not playing online game

Never, this likely just means the game can't write to the prefs file for some reason

RE: ^ key crashes the game. (under linux?)

That's a great discovery 👍 , thank you for taking the time to find it

RE: ^ key crashes the game. (under linux?)

All game should create a log; they're synced to disk as you play. Beyond that, plan sounds good 🙂 .

Also check and confirm that it really is ^ (e.g., shift + 6 on my keyboard) and not just 6. And check and confirm that there's not else attached to the key combination. For example, some graphics drivers listen to certain keys and trigger all sorts of behavior such as starting a recording or collecting statistics.

There's this in your logs that's highly unusual:

The unusual part is that this errors out before the game has even launched. It also marks various Lua modules as corrupt. It appears the origin is from a hotkey. Do you have other game logs where the game crashes for you?
