Wondering if we could have a feature enabled in maps to print logs on what/where caused a desync. This would help immensely, especially with the given new natives and testing what does/doesn’t cause desyncs.
We can of course go through our code and look for the usual suspects, but if the game is already detecting a desync? Why not just allow us to see what triggered it (or when)?
Blizzard doesn’t even know how to fix this issue seeing as how they claimed to have fixed it years ago. I believe its a server side issue and not a map issue.
I’m not referencing the desync issues happening for many maps in general - just in terms of map makers and testing out code D:
Would be great. I got issues in my map (Metal Maul Wars) aswell. No clue what causes them. But Blizz gives sh*t about custom games it seems…
There acutally is such a feature but you will have to understand what you are doing. It helped me at least. Just go in the documents folder to the following location:
\Documents\Warcraft III\Errors
There are folders with the exact time stamp and two files. Both can help you but as I said. You have to know what you are doing and what is happening.
Have you tried looking through this list SymphonyX?

Especially check 3 b)
Also look for very fast periodic triggers (0.1-0.01) . With the state of the servers right now i think Blizzard changed something in the network load that has to do with syncing classic and reforged users graphics This might lead to being less sync calls available /frame for your custom code. Which would cause some spells that prior were fine or a little laggy to outright desync now 100%.
At least it fixed the issue for me.
