@just_norm said in Power deficit on construction effects: Once they are all assisting, I can see my energy bar is showing - 500. Will having this -500 deficit cause the building to complete slower than if i removed some of the engineers (so for eg the deficit was -100) or if I removed enough engineers so that the energy bar was showing a slight positive. Except for the mex probem mentioned by @FtXCommando , the answer is no (if you still have an acceptable mass income or storage). More engineers should always either make no difference or increase the speed of building. However, it is usually vastly easier to increase the speed of a project by pausing other energy consumers in your base than to just increase the build power ratio of the project by putting more engineers on it while stalling. And you usually want to do the pausing anyway to not stall shields or radar.

@mazornoob said in Who wins the Infinity war? Wich one is the canon / true ending of Supreme commander first campaign?: FA's timeline from the intro video specifies that Burke "disappears" X days or months AFTER the Seraphim come, implying she was still a regular human after vanilla campaign. Also remember that the Seraphim start the war by carpet nuking Earth, so Black Sun being destroyed is irrelevant. Yea, she dissapears because she get hit by the Black Sun beam, and black sun gets distroyed. [image: JStrOYr] You are wrong, the intro didnt say that princess Burke disappears after Seraphym came, the intro says: "Princes Rhianne Burke, who was taken the first step towards ascension (being struck by black sun beam) vanishes. Her fate is unknown. [image: vLeVUIw]

I use Reshade and have been for years, it works fine. Make sure to direct it to the FAF install and not Steam

That would be a solution, preferable is: [image: 1685214541148-a62743d5-6b43-473a-aad2-8f86bdbfdb68-image.png] I thought it was clear, because I added the screenshot from the FAF client earlier.

Yes, I know what null means. The messages never happened before. They are annoying.

Looks like it’s doing a case sensitive sort which puts upper case letters before lowercase

Tragedy of the commons. No one joins good maps because of a 10+ minute lobbysim, so 10+ minute lobbysim will always be the default. The solution is to join the lobby anyway, and hope others are more inclined to join the lobby because you're already in there. Alternatively, play TMM.

There are several maps and mods that do what you're thinking of: the gamemode is called 'Survival'. Check out the map RainMakers Survival, or perhaps Battle of Thermopylae Survival. Also see this thread.

The custom Avatars for the 4 brackets look really cool. Love it. Cash price should be reserved for the top Grandmaster only.

Hi Great big thanks from me too. You guys are brilliant!

I would say the biggest hurdles would be the technical issues. If it were easy to detect laggers and prevent them from playing matchmaker I think we’d be happy to add that. There are some GPGNet messages called Bottleneck and BottleneckCleared that the server can see. I don’t know what they do but judging by their names they sound like they could possibly be used to detect at least when a game is lagging, and maybe that could be correlated to a particular player? I don’t really have the time to investigate that sort of thing at the moment though.

@rowey said in Community Manager Candidate Q&A: @kazuya Thanks for the answers. Few other questions based on the answers I assume the Dev Diary's would be forum based? What do you mean by the following statement I think especially in the sectors of development maintenance so like paying for servers id include in that, that'll allow maybe better Client Services in the future. what do you see being the easiest part of what you set out as your main point to be achievable from the get go and other that may take some work from others? do you indented to do this role solo or if people are interested to help out delegate out tasks ? Yes, most likely Basically, making sure Maintenance in which I see as improving existing infrastructure is focused on (maybe GW too ) By far, Dev Dairies are the easiest just because I already have good connections in that area to be able to establish that. The hardest, I think is probably creating a more connected and cohesive FAF Community that heavily supports Tournaments, Development, and other things through fundraising. This is just an extremely difficult task as engagement in my eyes isn't very high from the average player. It depends on how large my job is/becomes. I think Community Manager has a lot of potential to be an outreach to the general population. I think i'll definitely be looking for help and ideas!

@phong said in Lags lags lags: I'm also a random map fan. Until these issues are resolved I'd love to play with more gap lag refugees like you, so you're officially invited. gladly

I decided to pull up the water settings for some biomes in the editor, and compared to the default, it looks like the values for lerp/sky reflections/sun strength are generally higher, and the surface colors are generally blackened. I might make a pr that makes some adjustments...
