I was in a game, playing (for like half an hour) and suddenly when i clicked near the ping buttons the game closed and the system opened a shortcut from my taskbar (from around the area on the screen where i have clicked in-game). I closed the application and reopened the game window succesfully.

Sometimes I cannot select templates from the building menu. It highlights the template icon like it is selected but the building panel stays unchanged. Need to click on tier 1/2/3 or exp button then template button again if i want to make a template. I'm not sure if it is a general problem but if anybody else has it maybe it is worth addressing.

Sorry, that's an error with the changelog! Thanks for pointing it out.

We've got this feature in the works, but we need it tested through the whole sequence of hosting a lobby and playing a game. It'll be there in the next update

please explain

3638 was the christmas update; the full changelog is listed here.

Scrolling up from there will yield the changes in 3639 and 3640.

To the "two smd at one naval nuke" comment, the seraphim battleship usually does take two to drop. It is in the wiki, and was an intended mechanic from the beginning of the game.

Something like that. What the game engine does in such an instance is removed wreckage that has been there the longest.

I often wonder if it is possible to spam so much wreckage that you can deny your opponent reclaim. Example: your opponents base is littered with aircraft wreckage, you build a TON of cheap low tech units and then Cntrl-K them in your base, would all that wreckage in your enemy's base disappear.

After about an hour into the game, the game crashed for all (afaik) participants. And I had such a nice city

Host being unable to move players around has been fixed as well.

Looking at your log, it gets spammed with this: "info: Particle cap exceeded, discarding excess.", which may well have something to do with a crash.

How long is the replay?

I think we were about 54 game minutes in. At the top probably ~700 asf in the map. Were tons of reclaim in the ocean as well.

What does "partical cap exceeded" means? Too much stuff in the game?

Can't click on "unit manager" in lobby as a standard player (not host).
