New engine release candidate (rc3) is ready for testing. Please feel free to give it a try and let us know how it goes, good or bad. This is your chance to check the game will run well for you before this gets released.

Updates since 2031:

Fixed: Sharing units with allies was not working.
Fixed: Units could be stuck when pushed deep enough into buildings by other units.
Fixed: Units could occassionaly get stuck running in a circle, until given a new order.
Fixed: Fast moving units could get stuck when they run into an area a building was about to be placed and then get trapped.

Improvement: Units will give up on unreachable move goals more reliably.
Improvement: Units are less likely to get stuck in terrain and buildings.
This can still happen, but the solution to that is going to be a lot more work.

Note: we’ve had recent reports that some players have lost in-game sound on the current live engine 1821. If you have this problem then please give this test engine release a try and report back whether the situation is any better for you.

You can test the latest release candidate by selecting “Engine Test”, under Config, on the Launcher, click Update, then click Start.
