Game speed & Active Pause

Introducing a new feature to change the game speed in single player modes (Campaign and Skirmish), as well as issue orders while the game is paused. This allows players to select from multiple game speed options:

• 0x (Paused)

• 0.5x

• 0.75x

• 1x

• 1.25x

• 1.5x

• 2x

Hotkeys:

Input and keybinding improvements

Introducing input changes that should solve most of the issues with input responsiveness as well as these changes:

• We’ve swapped out the “Classic Mouse controls” option and made it so it’s now possible to rebind mouse buttons as players see fit

• Most actions are now rebindable, except modifier keys (Ctrl/Alt/Shift)

• Added a button to switch between the Build and Doctrines tab (“M” key by default)

• Structure upgrades now have hotkeys:

  • Upgrade 1 – “,” key by default

  • Upgrade 2 – “.” key by default

‘No bot’ Sandbox mode for Skirmish

• Added a new option to start the game in Skirmish mode without any bots, allowing players to experiment with their builds and bases without worrying about attacks from opponents.

Reconnection system

Introducing a new reconnection system allowing players to reconnect to ongoing matches if they are experiencing internet issues. Previously, if a player lost connection to the internet, he was thrown out of the match with a loss. With this feature implemented, players will receive a pop-up about losing connection and will have up to 180 seconds to reconnect to the match. For the rest of the players, the match will be paused until disconnected players restore connection or can’t reconnect to the match after 180 seconds.

NOTE: It’s not currently possible to reconnect to a match if the game was closed.

New Player Colors

• Added 8 new player colors to choose from for Custom/LAN/Skirmish lobbies
