Constant Desync Errors

Even in new Tales of Terran Alliance

My friend and I have been struggling with multiplayer issues since GC3. I've played the single player game since 1 and loved them all. He got 3 so we could play together but so many errors and crashes that we decided to get 4 thinking/assuming it would be better. Nope. We just got the TTA hoping that would FINALLY fix it but no. We made it 31 turns. Desync. No more throwing money at it. I've always loved SD games but starting to lose faith I guess.

Anyone know of a different similar game that works? I have the newer Master of Orion but never tied multiplayer on it. My friend specifically loves creating his own races.

TIA and Happy holidays to everyone

Hey, could you share the save files of your game, so that we could investigate the desyncs?
Happy holidays!

Certainly! I zipped my whole debug folder - it has examples from multiple games although some could be from the same game. If you have questions or need more info, I'll be happy to do what I can.

Never shared a google drive link before so hopefully this works.

Thank you and hope this helps, and I hope you have a wonderful holiday season.

Whoops, I'm sorry, I just reread your message, you asked for the saved game files, so here they are, all for the same game. Due to the constant desyncs, I set it to autosave after every turn. I do not know if that runs the risk of saving the problem into the game or if they always happen after a save. This is still an active game we are playing, I can send upload a the most recent save the next time it happens, if that would be helpful.

In the mean times, here are the save files. If you have questions, feel free to ask, I'm happy to help troubleshoot/experiment etc.
