      Never used the area reclaim feature but it seemed like a cool idea, unfortunate that its not possible to implement in the way the devs wanted

      Nice to hear from you! Maybe we can go over some changes together so I can learn how you would go about doing them? You can find me on discord, then we can schedule a time that fits for us.

      I got some material in my discord threads under the mapping general channel, but here's a selection of stuff I'm thinkign of expanding into maps: [image: image.png?width=1440&height=611] [image: 1689611429500-c0410493-800px-wm.png] [image: 1689611441307-image.png] [image: 1689611455458-enimmsnvaaaxlca.png] [image: 1689611475471-quadmech-juan-paulo-mardonez-ice-frontier-001.png] [image: 1689611481959-89ed73108172707.png] [image: 1689611495378-image.png] [image: 1689611512859-image.png] [image: 1689611543704-image.png]

      The aim of this is to gather new comparison screenshots for the promotion of the release, to get feedback and to hopefully inspire people to help with the remaining units that have issues with the new shaders due to their textures.

      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...

      @tagada said in Split matchmaker into mapgen and regular map queues: There is currently no 3vs3 queue since that format is essentially dead. Nearly nobody plays it and there are no maps for it. If it would be just a map problem then the mapgen 3vs3 would solve that. The question is would enough people play it? Try it? 2v2 is basically dead anyway. Coincidentally, I wonder how much effect mapgen vs known maps has on rating. Using a dedicated queue (+ rating) might be worthwhile anyway.

      The server update has been deployed, high rated players should now notice that the rating range in their game has decreased and consequently it is a bit harder for them to find games.

      Looks like unscouted units have their own icon. The ASI mod scaled their size along with the regular icons when it worked. Yeah, it would be really fun to have a separate icon pack for all unknown units. It would have definitely turned the game around)))

      I think he meant something more like meeting minutes instead of an agenda.

      It's called visual hierarchy. I can make the text a bit lighter, but it won't be white. If I put global in a line with 1v1 it floats too high. It is now visually in the middle of the leaderboard and division name of the others. As there is no league for global I think it fits to indicate that. Why do y'all want an earth image? It's a global rating in the sense that it is affected by all other ratings. Not because it is valid in the whole world. Putting a globe there only encourages that misunderstanding. It is supposed to not be consistent with the other ratings as global has no league associated with it.

      @freedom_ said in League System Feedback Thread: I think the 4v4 one is broken, I'm sandwiched between players who's 1v1 ladder rating is about 500 points higher than mine (Turin and Turbo) It clearly does not represent skill level I should be down in about masters 5 or diamond 1 but I'm still gaining 2 points a win... It's the other way around. Turin and Turbo should be higher. They would still climb if they continued playing. I think it is because of a combination of the above mentioned bug with placements and the soft rating reset for 4v4, so high rated players take a while to float to the top again. I believe that next season we won't see these problems anymore.
