It really depends on your internet if its needed or not

Is this still needed?

oh apologies I meant the literal "Random_number" desync error.

@Axneth Ironswift depends what you mean by random. Completing multiple empire focuses is quite intensive, which for bad internet means it might just get overloaded, causing a desync.

Would this affect "Random" desyncs? Or other things.

Just noticed this could be the issue too, glad someone made a mod for this

You can get all of the techs via regular research, none are exclusive to focuses

if this works what about the major techs that they unlock for research?
