Can an unaltered project ever produce differing build outcomes?

    Sorry if I'm in the wrong forum location.

    If I produce 10 builds in a row of an unaltered project, should they theoretically all be identical? or is there a chance of random bugs in each?

    I pose this question for either mono or il2cpp build archetypes.

    @Dobalina Hi there, sorry for the late response. It should be the case that an unaltered project should result in the same build every time. Technically, after the first build the subsequent builds should be faster (assuming you're not doing clean builds every time) since they'll reuse some of the work from the first build, but it's supposed to be the case that the results of builds are deterministic. If you're experiencing something where the result of a build is not deterministic, then it's probably a bug and you should definitely report it!
