Desync in coop game:

Postby Gorton » 18 Sep 2013, 00:53

It worked fine, for a while, but then it desynced a little while in.



-Not a bug, but also of note is the lack of ability to gift resources or structures which should probably be changed

I have had 3 coop games desync in a row. Haven't been about to play for more than ~15 minutes yet.

Same thing...

Also it seems to happen right after we start an EXP unit

You need to tell me exactly what unit(s) is causing that.

Try in sandbox, spawn them one by one.

I've Tested this now with a ton of people

The instant ANY experimental T4 unit is created, either by the PLAYER, or by the Computer in the map, the game Desyncs.

This only happens with 2 or more players.

It can be any EXP started building by the player, or A map expansion where the computer gets EXP unit.

Avoiding building EXP unit will get you as far as the 3rd expansion on the Fort Griffon Map, as soon as the GC appears, players desync.

Thanks. I can't test the issue right now, but can you check if it does it with an AI instead of a second player? (the AI won't work, but it's easier to replicate for me :)

I had the same problem twice with 'monkeylord' and 'soul reaper'.

It seems experimental units have different build times. On my computer, the unit was built but not by another player.
