I’ve had the suspicion that this old bug was still happening a few times. In the attached game I again noticed a slight lag spike around when I expected the enemy to click up to castle. So I remembered the exact second that I thought this and checked in the rec. Sure enough, it was the exact moment he clicked up

Hi @gwfe8248
Does it occur only if other player click to advance age or does it happens also when you click?
Thanks for the report.

In a MR game I played today, I tried watching out for it again, and sure enough I could feel the exact second the opponent clicked up to castle age. I could not feel the same when clicking up myself. I guess there’s a small chance that it still happens, but you don’t notice it? (because it coincides with an action you do, clicking the button, whereas it is more noticeable when the enemy does it and you experience the lag while performing no action yourself)

But really it feels like it’s only when the enemy clicks up
