Country status calculations error
« on: November 01, 2026, 04:54:28 PM »
The number of players seems to be correct however the numbers in flight / AFK etc do not add up.

You can see in this screenshot that there are 18 Bish in total.  0 AFK, 12 in flight and 0 waiting.

I am not sure where the % NonAFK comes from as the numbers do not seem to add up with the information on the screen.

So, for the Bish, 18 total but only 12 inflight.  Where are the other 6?  GV maybe?  But I thought they were counted as in flight.

There was a change recently in one of the patches do not count away from the keyboard players, but I completely forget how that was calculated. I haven’t really paid attention to the status screen to know if they’re being excluded or not.

I do not understand what you said.  The AFK players are a column in the list and you can see that one team has a number in there.

All teams have players missing. An explanation might be needed, but I think you found a bug.

The columns are not meant to add up to the total. Total is everyone in the arena on that side who is able to fly, including players in the tower and hangar. In Flight is how many of them have a sortie running, so 18 total with 12 in flight means about 6 were not up. %NonAFK is what is used for side balancing.

But I am fixing the text alignment
