      I've added the third section about improved controls and commands, see also the second post starting at 'Control ...'.

        Unfortunately, the game desyncs at ~14m, tried it several times. But looks super promising so far.

          Can you be more specific, along with replay IDs?

          You are probably referring to the replay: that is correct. Replays in FAF Develop can desync as soon as new changes are pushed towards the branch.

              For this patch we've made significant memory reductions, which in turn reduce the stress on the garbage collector and reduces the memory footprint in general. I'll write a post with more details about it later this week. But for now - we need more test data! In particular surrounding the intel and veterancy system, as they both have been re-implemented from the ground up.

              You can choose the FAF Develop game type when you host a game:

              A lot of people have been hosting on FAF Develop and I've been looking at every representable replay to read your messages on possible bugs, checking the logs and gathering performance statistics.

                A few people played games on FAF Develop, you can find the replays here:

                • https://replay.faforever.com/19244597 [stable]

                With thanks to the hosts for choosing the faf develop game type. The game is stable, as it has been the past few weeks. For those wondering how they can contribute: host your next game on the FAF Develop gametype instead of FAF.

                  small question about the monkey lord, is this in the developer also undetectable for a granny or was it the patch? If so, I have overlooked the point or not found it.

                        I only noticed in one game. Short version: I already have an Omi-sensor, but the Monkylord was only revealed during scouting and used again from sight as soon as the scout's vision ended. This even though the Monkylord was in the Omni function range.

                          Here's an example. Picture 1- I own an Omni and my opponent has a Monkylord + energy.
                          Image 2: I let a scout appear over the monky lord.

                            @Saver do you have a replay id for me?

                              THANK YOU!! And please keep up the great work!

                                @Saver I think it is fixed with: https://github.com/FAForever/fa/pull/4711

                                Could you test it again?

                                @Thomy100 thank you for your kind words 🙂
