Vondrakin (me) and Jebus <Axis> Defending vs Arise and Nevyen <Allied> Attacking.
Fighting on Mcgheans War 2vs2 encountered a sync error, From what we can tell Arise lagged then it stated Jebus has died. I gained control of Jebus's units and our company became unavailable in company control.

** on review Axis were set to attack yet it set us to defend despite the downloader confirming Allies defend. **

Sync errors are not really problems with the modification per se.  It's generally a failed computation on one of the client machines that causes a synchronization problem.  Best thing you can do is attempt to replay the battle...

"Best thing you can do is attempt to replay the battle..."

You mean watching the replay?

[fldash]

No, watching the replay only helps if the battle didn't report but finished normally... (as in no SYNC or SCAR errors)

Probably not even a failed computation. Just some operations are nondeterministic and can have different results on different computer. Especially related to floating point variables, but not limited to them.
Thats why everything has integer values:)
