Another small UI change that could help would be to add a message like this to the bottom of the game list:

Just to remind people these games are there. Ideally, clicking the message should un-hide the modded games.

V2 update - fixed a bug where attacking units wouldnt get new orders when their target was dead.

Also updated the wiki with a diagram of how the logic works:

For the benefit of those who haven't seen the discord announcement, a new version of the client was released a couple of hours ago.

v218 Update
5 changes, including:

Fixing a bug in QUIET where mobile SMD would be built instead of spearheads Units should be more likely to engage enemies near the frontline that they outrange. Improved ACU build order so it is less likely to build the 5th+ mexes at the start

v219 Update
15 changes, including:

Various improvements to Aeon missile ship usage, including making them less likely to fire at units protected by cliffs Civilian buildings in water will now be considered for capture Fixed a bug where water zone locatiosn could be considered as land zones Fixed an issue where if the asf support location was too near the frontline (with the enemy having ground based AA near the frontline) they'd ignore all enemy units

Acknowledgements

Relent0r - Replay involving Aeon missile ships

v220
Hotfix with 4 changes, including:

Fixed a major bug with torp bombers that meant most of the time they wouldn't attack Fixing a couple of ACU related errors where the ACU was in a different plateau to nearby units Fatboys should be more likely to attackmove in LOUD and QUIET

Acknowledgements

goblinsly2 - Highlighting issues with M28 torp bombers Vortex - QUIET replay involving fatboy

Version 2 - The mod should now work on campaign maps (although I've only confirmed on one of them, and I'm assuming there aren't any custom maps with cutscenes that last more than 2 minutes)

Thank you for this craptonn of work. amazing stuff so far

Wanted to know, is this any way to ask AI to share a unit? Like a T2 engi for Cyb hive or sacu

Also does it understand map pings?

Seraphim walled PDs still largely useless (at least on Open Palms)

Yes there is a config error on the server with how mods are uploaded that should be resolved soon

Hi, I'd recommend M28 for better mod compatibility. Although in theory M27 should work with unit mods, I'm not actively looking to expand it's compatibility, and in the case of BrewLAN as the FAF vault version is broken (at least the last few times I've checked) it's not something I'd be looking to fix at this stage (although if the FAF vault version does get fixed then I'd be open to investigating the issue you mention of M27 not working at all with the mod enabled)

Most positions are closed or appointed. Moderation Councillor is voted upon by the current moderators. Balance Councillor is voted upon by the current balance team. Game Councillor is effectively appointed because like 2 dudes even touch the lua repo. DevOps precedent has basically been appointment but that's because there hasn't been a situation of multiple qualified candidates wanting to have the position. And so on and so forth.

For Player Councillor to operate in a similar fashion you'd need it to basically be like the trainers, TDs, and matchmaker team vote for their manager but the whole issue here is that these teams are quite fluid and low in barrier to entry. If I had a closed election like this, I'd have 4 dozen complaints about rigging the vote because I didn't let some dude that hadn't logged onto FAF for 3 years that had a trainer avatar in 2017 for a few months participate etc. Same thing with TDs. I already dealt with a ton of moaning because I would remove people as TDs if they failed to host a tournament within the last year, imagine that also carried the loss of some voter privilege.

if you want to know what the AI is actual building and what platoonbuilder is used for it, then you could use my AI mod to debug this.

If activated my mod provides the following debug outputs:
DEBUG: AI Platoon names will show the name of the actual platoon on every unit.
DEBUG: AI BuilderManager will print the actual ordered buildplatoon to the moho debug window ([F9])

[Edit] if you need help with debugging, just post your mod here or on discord and we will look at it.

Thanks, if you could share the mod that’d be great! 🙂

Units can only get 1 veterancy level per kill

There was fixes like this one to make reparing cybran shield drain less ressources : https://github.com/FAForever/fa/pull/2703

I spent some time debugging the leaderboard issue today and I think I’ve found out why it’s not working. https://github.com/FAForever/server/issues/687
