FYI: lobby protocol only distingish between version strings, not build-config.

build-config shouldn't affect sync, but syncdebug builds imo do. -> version string returned by unitsync should change

does it desync?

yes and no: it depends on the definition of a desync.

syncdebug builds have additional netcommands. when sync & syncdebug build is run, and a desync occurs, the "normal" build just continues to run while the syncdebug build tries to send / receive the debug info.

i would add syncdebug to the version info because running a syncdebug with a "normal" build totally breaks the purpose of a syncdebug build. imo it makes no sense to run syncdebug with normal builds.

note: thats imo the only way to make lobbies to distinguish between syncdebug and normal build.

because autodownload could fetch a syncdebug build if needed. else it will always fetch the normal build.

this can/could be fixed by making lobbies recognizing "build config" as well, but not sure whats better. if lobby regognizes it somehow, the user would have to _always_ select what he wants to download, with syncdebug in version it could be automaticly selected.

long past the point where this would be useful imo
