    This hard-crash has been fixed on FAF Develop for a week now. I've been telling people any way I can to play on it - including the red banner at the top in the news. On Monday it will be part of the patch.

    @jip said in Nomads?: It is hard enough to balance four factions, let alone five. Well one of these is going to have to go then... Eyeballs Sera

    In my case the game often takes close to a minute just to start. I don't know why; I have a fast PC and haven't been able to find log messages. Something to do with Proton maybe. At any rate, it's plenty fast enough after starting.

    We're going to aim for an implementation where you can mute other players ping messages for the next patch of November, see also this issue on the FA repository.

    And @arma473 the friend of @TauNoob1 was right - a similar merge (where it includes textures) is flawed. The new implementation is not - and then the icons can be activated / deactivated accordingly. You will also no longer have this issue where another mod accidentally overrides a base game texture as not all textures will be loaded, just icons and those are loaded in such a way that if they are not enabled then they do not clash with the base game icons.

    that should not be an issue as I know people who are still on v 1.5 of the far client and don't update unless they are forced to.

    @captainklutz You could simply require that by having T1, T2 and T3 air staging for each class. Then you can balance the cost of the air staging proportionally if you feel that for example ASF repair is too cheap an option.

    @ovo There is an infinite build range mod on FAF's vault. You could use that mod on one of those survival wave maps and limit yourself to only building certain types of things. But, if you want those limitations to actually be coded into a map or a mod, you might want to create a forum suggestion thread describing what you think should be made in detail.

    @emperor_penguin having worked in proces automation and HMI this springs to mind... High Performance HMI https://youtu.be/5GEvFF8pGlc?t=238 In particular in regard to color. There is something to be said for: Baseline everything is gray unless it matters Enemy icons are higher contrast gray lines vs background TML, SML and experimentals use red lines instead of gray PD, TMD and SMD use green lines instead of grey Highest tech units currently in the game use light blue instead of gray backgrounds until there are more than 20 of that tech level Dangerous units like Mercy, Fire Beetle, strategic bombers and maybe T2+ gunships and bombers use blue lines Player color is shown as a circle underneath icons and this never overlaps the real icons.

    I changed my Engies to have 1, 2, and 3 visible because I can't see the little tech lines zoomed out, but maybe that is also too much. I'm looking at your screenshots and not totally a fan, but I do agree that with the default icons finding that T2 engy is too hard. Perhaps use the spanner symbol, then make it a double/triple spanner for T2/T3 engies? But the 1/2/3 icon is good enough to also make an option, if you are willing to make a few variants.

    As of the latest patch Advanced strategic icons style mods will be able to be put on the vault. I would check there first as I’m sure someone is gonna upload it there.

    keep in mind that shards were buffed. From my own experience i remember chasing air units with shards cause they are just THAT fast Edit: also not 100% sure but also running away from torpedos dodjing almost any projectile Edit2: Even if you don't manage to completely run away from torpedos, you still greatly prolong time before unit dies and usually at that time torps are right above your aa boats... tho they still kinda don't feel that great against t2 torp bombers, tho you really need to take unit costs in account if you want to understand how good they are

    @kdrafa91 Yeah, this was done to fix the exploit of Ctrl+k a whole wing of aircraft to take out the shield or other targets under shields.
