[MS/ML][Bug?] HEAD requests on CMlQuad.ChangeImageUrl()

I am not sure if this is a bug, or an intended feature. I am not sure where to post it (ManiaLink or ManiaScript?), either.


Whenever you change the image of a Quad using .ChangeImageUrl() or .ImageUrl, the game is creating a HEAD request to the specified image. I think this is to recognize any changes of the image on server side.

The problem: If you are constantly changing the images (like in Tetris), you create A LOT of these HEAD requests. I am speaking here of around 20 requests per second. This is too much in my eyes.

Would like to have an official comment from Nadeo on this issue :)
