On that note, the balance indicator seems slightly inaccurate. Can that be fixed as well, or is it as good as its gonna get? :)

I mean, if both teams have players with ratings very similar to each other (each team has a 200, 500, 900 and 1100 player), it says 3%, 13% or some other really low number.

It's probably what's the OP is saying : it doesn't refresh correctly (except for the host).

The trueskill implementation is correct, so the results are correct when refreshed. (it passed the tests).

It is also refreshed in the FAF lobby. Just alt-tab and you will see the rating there as well.

I know that. But there are some people who dont know. And at least one of the players in my games seems not not to know. So i have to explain it nearly every game before i start. I already thpught about making a document from where i can copy paste it to explain... yes i am a lazy b... .
It is nothing urgent to fix its more a general comfort thing and it seems to confuse newer players.
