Suddenly the game became laggy.

[lynodie]

The game runs just fine (with 70 fps), but as soon as i build Biodome T2 the game starts to become "laggy". If i'm inside Biodome T2 then the game freezes every 2 or 3 seconds for like half a second and the further away i get from Biodome T2 the longer the time period becomes between two "freezing events".

What could be the reason for these "freezing events"?

A weak cpu maybe?
Could be your base ist too big

[lynodie]

No, i could play this game with way bigger bases even on a weaker cpu that i previous used (right now i use a Ryzen 5 5500).

Ok, now i'm confused. I started a new game in the same map. I just built my base in a different spot (the laggy one was near the wreck in the bottom left of the map, the new one is in the middle of the map) and now the game does not lag at all. WTF?

Early Access game is having a bugs?

Restart a game & reload your previous save to confirm lags - if they're still an issue then send a save to devs with description of issue & PC stats.

The game is not perfectly optimised yet and a lot of objects in close enough proximity to give their full resolution texture def quickly makes the game harder to run. I am running the game on a mediocre PC and it really helps to space out all apparatus I build over a larger area around my base to keep performance nice
I too have found found that inside the biodomes my PC has the most trouble.
Some areas of the map naturally have more clutter and stuff so will tank performance faster than others

I was having 120 fps until I setup drones and that has tanked my FPS to 20-30 FPS

How many drones? 1000? 2000? Because players sometimes go crazy on drones & autocrafters

I noticed the lag as well but without the t2 biodome on a new slot. My only way I could stop it was turning down the graphics to low and it went back to the same speed as before the dev branch switch. Before I used to get 60 fps on ultra pre-dev branch.

[Ziltoid]

I've noticed this as well. Used to be running around 50-60 FPS constantly - same save, same PC now has lag spikes down to <5 FPS. It is particularly bad when going from one biome to another, and it happens even when there are zero structures or drones around me.

Hello and thanks for the feedback!

The new version, v0.9.007 tries to adress the stuttering issues. Feel free to tell us if you see any changes with this new version.

[Zafo]

Still stutters for me

[SuperClark]

v0.9.007 has made the game more laggy now it stutters all the time it was the odd occasion on v0.9.006 it has become unplayable - I have intel 4007k and ssd so its not my system.

Oh 1 more thing the new Generator oepns no doors and the big safe is now missing

[madminded.taxman]

When entering the volcano bione I get 5fps and in other aread game is also lagging extremely

[SuperClark]

I have figured out that the new generator locks the room were the big safe is that's all it does. I am not sure if this is the intention but seems weird to lock doors to asset boxes.
