- **fixed** — Improve latency calculation for players with decent internet who were unable to use Matchmaking
- **fixed** — Fix incorrect mode or map selection when directly inviting someone to play

Many thanks to all of the players who have been sharing information with us about situations where they have not been able to play due to latency (ping) estimations when they really should have pretty good internet. This only affects a subset of players, so there is a good chance this update is not relevant to you, but it might be. Out of these groups:

-  Players who can use Matchmaking fine already

-  Players who cannot use Matchmaking, but do have decent internet

-  Players who cannot use Matchmaking, and don't have decent internet

This update is for the middle set. Definitely let us know if this helped you or not!

Fixes also went in for not selecting the correct mode/map when directly inviting someone to play with.
