Whilst I sympathise on a personal level I think perhaps you might want to consider what else in the world might be happening which most people didn't think they would see in the 21st century.

Open an issue on github (for Downlords faf client) so volunteer devs can investigate. Ask if there's any way you can assist. Otherwise it's unlikely to magically stop.

It's a colloquial expression of disagreement and incredulity at the suggestion of T1 TML. Banning would be madness

CTRL-RMB (with or without shift) for formation move. CTRL-ALT-RMB (plus shift) for formation attack move.

My solutions to that exact problem are in that thread. Either disable on board audio in bios then restart and re-enable it, or reinstall drivers. The first solution is quickest if you can find the right bios screen

My eye is not morally unstable

I think they come with age and the inability to see tiny monochromatic icons without developing eye strain

Umm I'm sure FBI has better things to do than combating DDOS attacks on ancient multiplayer game (played by a couple of thousand people at best) based in foreign (non-US) country being attacked by actors likely from another foreign country.

Jip I'm just a lurker who plays occasionally but from what I'm reading I would say take a break, do something else you really enjoy, and please come back. You've done so much for this game. And remember that RTSs are largely played by young men who aren't exactly known for being reasonable, well mannered or socially adjusted, I.e. there's a lot of d***s about (and we've probably all been guilty of it ourselves).

Recently I lost a lot of sounds after a Windows update (in particular mantis firing). This has happened previously for me. In the past I found that disconnecting and reconnecting my headphones resolved the issue, but not in this case. I had to totally reinstall motherboard manufacturer recommended audio drivers (from ASUS). Unfortunately they come bundled with Sonic Studio and Sound Radar which even when all audio enhancements are turned off and sound is set to stereo still results in crashes with XACT sound errors in the log. I resolved this by completely uninstalling Sonic Studio and sound radar crap. Thought I'd post in case anyone else has similar issues.

Sorry still don't understand what this does. Needs a before and after image to make it clear.

But they can't only play 5x5 as both players have to agree

If you have cd with key you can try adding that to steam

For missing sounds you can also try disabling and then reenabling audio in your bios (restart between). This worked for me (and it's quicker than reinstalling drivers)

What about a mod to make factory rally points much more visible when you press control-shift (E.g with a flag symbol). It might need 2 flag sizes - one for master factories and a smaller flag for a rally point of a slave (assisting) fac. If this post is considered hijacking this thread please let me know and I'll delete.

The issue isn't with unit speed per se. You'd expect units in formation to move at the speed of the slowest unit It's with how they all backtrack to form up, and the pathfinding in forged alliance is so poor which basically causes a mess. Also formations at waypoints frequently stop and never get started again. Presumably this happens because units within the formation are not able to reach their final positions at each waypoint (due to terrain) and as a consequence never initiate the move to the next waypoint.

The alternative to allow one to quickly try out ladder maps against an AI is to have a button in the lobby of a custom game to quickly choose randomly from amongst the ladder pool. Still wouldn't set up AI for you though.

If you are getting missing sounds when playing (sound plays once and that's it) then disable sound in Bios then restart, re-enable sound in Bios. See post 15.

@tagada thanks for taking the time to respond. And CheeseBerry for the testing!

Debates are only any good at determining who is good at debating which is fine if that is what the job is. Seem like massive overkill for a faf pc.
