    • RE: CPU performance tests

      I tried the benchmark map but it doesn't work, there are no units or anything (other than my ACU) and no score appears after 3 minutes. I followed the instructions.

      Meanwhile here are my results for R5 5600X running at 4.85GHz with 32GB DDR4 3066CL14

      10:08 replay time
      91 CPU score in the lobby test.

    • RE: Rating degradation

      A rating decay with a lock on how much it can decay seems like the optimal solution. With the data they've got they could figure out the optimal formula over time.

      Ryzen 5 1600 3.8Ghz, 32GB DDR4 3066CL14

      16:06 running the game on the second core
      16:28 running on the first thread

      CPU Score: 162, around 210 if I set the frequency to flat 3.2Ghz and without thread optimization.

    • RE: FAF client completely unusable on VRR display due to screen flickering.

      Unfortunately, I couldn't find that Downlord's Faf Client folder anywhere on my drives. I'm using AOC Q32G1.

    • RE: Move attack and patrol orders not working as intended. Inconsistent reclaim

      Thanks for the replies, I completely forgot that engis don't reclaim if the storage is already full. My bad.

    • RE: How is spread attack supposed to work?

      Ok, so I select targets with shift as usual and then just press G (with shift still pressed) by the end, now it's working. Thanks.

    • RE: How is spread attack supposed to work?

      How am I supposed to select multiple targets without using shift? If I just RBM multiple targets and then press shift+G after, all bombers will move to that last target. Btw, in one of my matches I RBMed two enemy units while having two of my own units selected, thinking they'd kill the first target and then proceed with the next but instead they actually started shooting both targets at the same time, I tried the same in my test game but it isn't working.

    • Move attack and patrol orders not working as intended. Inconsistent reclaim

      Most of the time attack move does absolutely nothing for me. I select an engi, literally click on the icon in the UI and then press somewhere on the ground and my engi will happily move there ignoring absolutely all reclaim on the way. One time I managed to get some reclaim out of it somehow but the engineer only reclaimed trees while completely ignoring big rocks. Using a patrol order on the same area worked as intended. However, even patrol doesn't seem to work every time, I've got several destroyed mexes on the field in my test game, set a patrol order right there but the engi just completely ignores wrecks, move attack doesn't work either. Is it a known bug or am I missing some important detail? Everything seems simple enough, I select an engineer, select the move attack order or patrol order and then press on the ground, and it simply doesn't work.

    • How is spread attack supposed to work?

      I select three bombers, press shift+g, select (RMB) one target, then the other and all my bombers fly towards the first selected target. I try the same with just the shift and the effect is the same. I try with just 'G' and it doesn't work either, the keybindings are normal. The targets are stationary and within radar coverage if that matters. I'm testing this on a "Life is rule" map against neutral targets.

    • RE: Panning with the mouse cursor doesn't work in borderless windowed mode

      I have "Screen Edge Pans Main View" selected but it isn't doing anything in windowed mode. I tried using a separate app to induce borderless window mode but it's causing the same issue. 😞

      I also discovered that the game is causing major flickering issues on my VRR screen in full screen mode unless I run in 60hz mode but then the input lag becomes very noticeable. Windowed mode solves that but then again, I can't pan the view and it really feels bad, I don't think I could get used to it.

    • RE: FAF client completely unusable on VRR display due to screen flickering.

      VRR is useful for eliminating screen tearing, besides, it's not like I can disable it for just one application, it's impossible and disabling or enabling it globally requires a reboot which means it's not a viable option at all.

      You don't always want the highest refresh rate of your monitor, google VRR and see what it does. Although in case of faf client it should indeed run at 144hz, this is what other windowed applications such as chrome, nvidia control panel, msi afterburner or RTSS do.

      I tried the two most reliable fps limiters and while on closer inspection they seem to actually work (if I set the limit to 1 fps I can see how slowly faf client reacts to my mouse movement) the flickering still persists.

      Every other windowed application works fine and faf is just a flat, static window with some text and occasional picture or two so I can only conclude there is something wrong with it. No idea what, but surely there must be some difference in comparison to every other windowed app I'm running that causes the problem.

      For now I disabled VRR for windowed applications since it seems that the main game I'm using it for somehow still has access to it despite running in borderless window mode. But still some devs may wanna have a look at that.

    • Panning with the mouse cursor doesn't work in borderless windowed mode

      I applied the tip from the FAQ so that now the game runs in borderless windowed mode but unfortunately I can no longer move the camera by moving the mouse cursor to the edge of the screen which feels extremely clunky. I know you can pan using arrow keys but that's a terrible location, I thought about using WSDA but there isn't a keybiding option for that. Any tips? Maybe I did something wrong?

    • FAF client completely unusable on VRR display due to screen flickering.

      Hi. The FAF client is royally messing up with my variable refresh rate screen. The refresh rate is all over the place with FAF client being the active window and that causes massive spikes in brightness resulting in very bad flickering. By default I play all my games in borderless windowed mode so I have the VRR applied to that mode too and I don't feel like changing it for just one game. Any way to solve this? I tried applying an fps limiter through Nvidia control panel and RTSS but it seems to have no effect. I could temporarily change Nvidia settings to only apply VRR to fullscreen mode but that's only a temporary solution 😕 Some other games I like I literally can't play in fullscreen because they'll softlock my pc if I alt tab out of them. Since everything else works good and FAF client isn't really doing anything graphically demanding I'm forced to believe the issue is with the client itself.
