We have seen an increased number of desyncs in our biter battles scenario in the past few months or so.
I personally have definitely seen an increase, but we haven't been able to pin down the reason why. I am playing on an M1 mac, and I seem to be getting desynced more than anyone else, so I suspect that the m1 port may have something to do with it,
Are there any tools that I might be able to use to narrow this down, or hints for us?
I'm not an expert but I know my way around a comp, and can provide any info you seek.
Some things that we noticed:
We seem to be able to get me to desync on spawning many biters quickly, but there seems to be a little bit of art to it. One person I tested with just brush painted biters and was usually able to get me to desync with a similar looking desync zip in 20 seconds, and other person had troubles.
In the logs I saw this before desyncs:

I have more desyncs I can upload, but they are big
