Advanced Formations
Why do advanced formations hotkeys lag so much? Everytime I try to change units to mellee it seems like I have to press the button 3 times so it works. Sometimes even if I do they still dont change formation. And thar’s when the game is not laggy.
Does this happen to everyone?

Re: Advanced Formations
Yes me too but for whatever reason I have the feeling it's mostly a UI bug. When I use hotkeys for advanced formations it's rather smooth
Re: Advanced Formations
maybe it needs setup or uninstlling usually takes les time toinstall..
Re: Advanced Formations
ye i think it's normal, always feels like more than 1 sec between pressing the button to actually changing formation

Re: Advanced Formations
havent found the fix for this, just spam the hotkey and hope for the best
Re: Advanced Formations
The technology just isn't there yet.
Re: Advanced Formations
in single player it is rather smooth, but with online lag it often doesnt take the command. Need to spam the hotkey like 2-3 times.
Possible reasons are also the fact that it may involve alt key (somehow sensible key because attack move and other stuff) and also the fact.that it has ti wait for the release of the key to take the command.

Re: Advanced Formations
Yeah it feels like any little lag fucks up the advanced formations switching. Dunno if it's any better when using hotkeys, but when clicking, you pretty much need to spam the hotkey to make sure it's taken into account.

Re: Advanced Formations
I don't use advanced formations so it don't bother me at all.

I have changed it to something else and it doesn't require alt key. I can confirm it still lags.

I took alt away from mu formation hotkeys, so probably not that. Interesting that you have to release the key, maybe it doesnt work because I click too fast after switching the modes and the tiniest lag may make the game think the click happened while I pressed D...
Something to be tested
Re: Advanced Formations
Ya super annoying. I've noticed watching six that when you click the switch stance it seems to work instantly, so using hotkeys actually is worse.. one of the most annoying things in the game next the the dead explorer atk move
Re: Advanced Formations
If games are really laggy sometimes you can notice that commands you inputted for one unit will affect a different unit instead. Like if I tell my huss to go raid and then select an idle vill, sometimes the vill will walk in that direction instead of the hussar.
I don't actually use hotkeys for advanced formations (I really should), but it seems to me that it could also be a similar sort of situation where any sort of lag causes the command to cancel or attempts to input it for a different unit if you deselect the units you intended to change after you use the hotkey but before the command visibly goes through.
