How will you know when your game will be unrated due to desync?
-
It was my understanding if you get a desync early in-game that it will unrate your match, however I am unable to predict when it will/wont rate your match. I've seen early desyncs happen on astro and the match still gets rated, and I've seen the opposite too. What's the criteria for when a match is unranked due to a desync?

If there are more than 20 desync messages sent from any players: https://github.com/FAForever/server/blob/1b98cdae23350c92fab5203b4e6ac9bf52198e6a/server/games/game.py#L477
So I guess the unpredictability comes from the player count heavily affecting the result. An Astro game will send 6 desync messages every 5 seconds while a Dualgap game sends 12. -
In practical terms... If you see desync message once in a game nothing is over yet, but if you see 2 messages then it is unranked because too many desyncs happened.
