    @zoodoo4u You used to be able to hold Ctrl while using your mouse scroll wheel to change the size, but that's no longer an option. It has been mentioned already, but it's unknown if that function will return or if an alternative replacement will be introduced.

    I've had a weird problem in chat. The main chat lobby frequently disconnects. And in older versions of the clients, when clicking to PM a player in-game, the side window would show the game they were in, the other players still in-game, and the game duration. This was incredibly useful when I would crash, would be able to quickly check if others had all crashed, and PM to let them know. Now, that window in the PM screen is blank, with zero information.

    White fire is more like a ~1k map imo and it does have some weird gameplay mechanics. It receives a lot of criticism in the highest bracket, but it could be a decent pick for the mid bracket I think

    Just tip the balance to the [image: 1710697877736-faf-random.jpg] faction since that's the best faction already. Problem solved.

    Depending on the ammount of AI's and units even the beefiest CPU's are gonna struggle. But the reality is that the game is much, much smoother on new CPU's compared to older ones. Especially if you focus on single core performance over the amount of cores. So high clocked 6 core or something with 3D cache would be amazing for this game. As what it needs is basically 2 cores, with one of them being ultra fast. Having good ram also helps a considerable amount.

    Can you mute pings/banners/and all the stuffs? Its sad,... sometimes its not even me, I watch new players join a 'noob/all welcome' game and others lose their shit on them for not building enough air or so. It would be nice to be able to mute those offensive pings. I recently returned to this game and it does seem a bit more toxic. I never submitted any reports before ever, but just in this year alone I have submitted two.

    @brutus5000 said in What is going on with FAF?: Please guys. If you want to donate for the cause of FAF that is fine. But don't donate and expect and problems to be resolved in return. This is not something we can guarantee. Absolutely understood. I suppose the better term I should have used is support rather than donate... Support can come in many forms, financial, skill set, or even just positive attitude. All I can do is bring a positive attitude and support the developers by not whining and complaining about the state of FAF every time I log on and I am more than happy to donate financially to a game that I care so much about and spend so much time playing. It's clear from this thread there is no easy fix so I'm not going to expect the few hundred dollars that I donate a year to instantly change that but it might go towards ensuring our tournaments at FAFLive continue to have great turnouts due to respectable prize pools and that the lights stay on so to speak. As great as my skill set is in my own life and career it is completely useless for what is required here at FAF but it brings me joy to be able to support financially.

    @flankker Those 3 that you mentioned are WIP & are Unreleased. @greenkiller56 was kind enough to edit the list in the #getting-started channel to include the download links to the latest versions of each map that is currently released.

    Well, it's not like there is a company that guarantees to solve our connection issues for 10.000$. If there were, we would take such an offer for sure. But that's like hiring an engineer for 10-15 days. Barely enough time to understand the existing code and finding the root cause, far away from fixing it.
  • UI mod idea: Custom select all

    Yes you probably want to use smartselect. Here's an example: ['Select mobile land direct fire units on screen'] = { order = 8, action = 'UI_Lua import("/lua/keymap/smartSelection.lua").smartSelect ("+inview +excludeengineers MOBILE LAND DIRECTFIRE OVERLAYDIRECTFIRE -SCOUT")', category = 'All land onscreen' }, Put that in your game.prefs file in the UserKeyActions section (back up before you edit it in case you mess it up). You should then be able to define a key in game. Ideally you don't want identical order values in the same category (I think this might cause issues but I'm not 100% sure). You can also use the 'idle' descriptor and you can also add or eliminate specific units using a portion of their unit name e.g. -ura0401 eliminates the soul ripper from the selection. There is more info in the link Nex provided. In order to make your own you may need to look at this file: https://github.com/FAForever/fa/blob/master/engine/Core/Categories.lua which lists all the categories, and perhaps extract (unzip) the unit.nx2 file which can be found in C:\ProgramData\FAForever\gamedata (or whatever drive you have FAForever on). You can then find the categories for all units in their blue prints (.bp files). Or use a text editor which can search within files such as Notepad++ or VScode (or a command line utility) to find all the units which match a specific category you are interested in.

    Map hacks existed back in the GPGnet era. Somehow, I have never seen or heard of them again in my entire time on FAF. Surely some people somewhere must know of them though.
