Hi James, I can enable mips64el when I package the next revision or Git snapshot. I have tried to build on mips and mipsel with "MinSizeRel" (-O0) optimization but it never really worked. The latest versions of FreeOrion require more than 4 GB of RAM and with less the build process becomes very slow due to swapping. The issue is somewhere in the ConditionParsers but I don't know how it can be optimized. Regards, Markus
