My friends and I have been having trouble getting starbase upgrades to function properly while playing online. We've narrowed down the cause, and it seems that with Alloy enabled, startbase upgrades do not progress. You can queue them up, and it takes resources, but the bar never moves and they never finish. When playing single player, Iron Clad with no alloy, regular multiplayer, it works fine. We've tested with two or three people, and this behaviour is consistent.
Is anyone else having this problem? Is there any more information we can provide?
