Server crashes on loading my map

I tried to make a one-hole sandbox map, but apparently the game can't handle its girth all at once and simply disconnects if I play it outside of edit mode. Can this be fixed or am I screwed?

It plays fine in the edit mode tester, so it's not an issue of something being glitched. I've also tried adding a functioning hole and lowering the par to something more reasonable, but these didn't fix it so I didn't bother uploading that version.

Hey there,

Since the game is freezing for so long, the online connection is timing out. This doesn't happen in the Course Creator because everything there is offline.

I've pinpointed the specific thing that is causing the freeze so I'll see what I can do to make it not freeze for so long.

The game is actually freezing? I thought it was just loading. It doesn't even load for that long for me.

Well, not freezing permanently. It is loading, but the loading is so intensive that it is causing the whole app to lock up for a short time until it is finished. If you click around a bunch while the course is loading, you can get Windows to detect that the game is unresponsive and close it, as if it had crashed. This is not ideal.

For me, it locks up for about 30 seconds when loading your course. 30 seconds to load a course isn't terrible, but freezing for that long is a problem.

I was able to improve the loading so it doesn't lock up and disconnect. This fix will be included in the next update.
