[15.6] Inflation of downloadsize after desynchron

Actually it seems, this game adds a multiplier of 5 to a map download after desynch. For example if a map has a size of 100 MB, you download around 500 MB.

This is by design. The report generates a lot of extra data to help the devs narrow down the cause of the desync.

Is it also intended you cant abort the 500 MB download without killing the process?

I also doubt i cant upload a 500 MB File here xD.

If you read the How to report a bug topic it tells you what to do with the report.
