Questions about performance

Played a fafdevelop game where ACU upgrade after it should finish got stuck and acu was constantly -7 mass.

(I was assisting ACU with cybran t1 assault bot)

This error popped up in the log:

warning: Error running OnStartBuild script in Entity url0107 at 25034d08: ...gramdata\faforever\gamedata\lua.nx5\lua\sim\unit.lua(901): attempt to call method IsUnitState' (a nil value) stack traceback: ...gramdata\faforever\gamedata\lua.nx5\lua\sim\unit.lua(901): in function UpdateAssistersConsumption'

Hi Crotalus, can you share the entire log and the replay ID?

edit: the error you provided is from a Mantis.

@jip game_15190526.log

And timestamp as to when it roughly happened? And to what player?

Ah, I think I understand what happened here. Thank you for sharing.

edit: found and understood the issue.

I'm still not sure if this applies to games with observers off (i.e. most of the games) at all.

Edit: woops, meant to post this in the other thread, sorry

@BlackYps You can continue the other discussion here:

• https://forum.faforever.com/topic/2461/ping-after-death-could-be-removed

@Jip In the same game that Crota reported, MaximusXXX said at 38:21 that he was able to build t2 navy despite the HQ being dead.

game_15190526.log

oh no

I'll look into that too - thank you for mentioning it.

@crotalus It is fixed - thank you for reporting it! This was also the issue @excelsior (discord) described and @Crotalus experienced during that replay.

@zwierzak The replay desyncs for me and that happens to be MaximusXXX . Can you describe what happened?

@utopian Thanks to KionX we may have found out what caused this crash. It will not be part of the next patch because its deadline is too close - but we'll certainly look at it. Again, thank you for reporting it.

Is the fix live on the dev branch right now? Just wondering if I should warn people or not when hosting games.

The fix with the mantis is live - yes

I failed to reproduce MaximusXXX's error and the game now desyncs for me, too. Probably because of the Mantis fix.
However, while testing just now, I found new problems:

Game: #15195914
Timestamp: 20:00
Issue: UEF T1 Attack Bomber seems to do very little damage

Game: #15195914
Timestamp: 28:00
Issue: Cybran T2 Naval Support Factory auto-repairs VERY quickly

Log isn't much help, as I didn't have debug enabled.

@zwierzak

Game: #15195914
Timestamp: 20:00
Issue: UEF T1 Attack Bomber seems to do very little damage

This is a known issue, it has to do with a change unrelated to performance. The Janus is hit hard too by that same change. Keyser is going to look at it this weekend.

I'll look at it - thanks for reporting it.

Hello Jip, thank you very much for your work in the forum and the game. Thanks also to the team. I think it's great how the community helps with every question. That's what I wish for in every game.

Regarding the question, I have noticed a drop in performance in the game so far (1 - 2 players vs 4 AIs)

There is an issue with the current faf develop that was introduced yesterday. It causes a lot of warnings. It is fixed in about an hour .

@Saver it should be stable now again .

Thanks

Ich hoffe der Bericht hilft evtl. für den Patch.

Und nochmals vielen Dank für eure Arbeit an dem Game.
