Average time for new random generation at max world size (10k)?

[Nhika]

Just wondering what times other people have been getting while I wait lol
-high end pcs 5 minutes or less
-medium end 10 minutes roughly (I am on 1080ti / amd ryzen 5)
-low end expect even more

If you click the game sometimes it will pop up not responding - but don't worry just let it load

I just recently got a much improved (but still not great) PC, and my generation time was like.. 5 mintues, maybe? Might have been 10. Wasn't paying a great deal of attention. I'll be generating a new one tonight, so i'll keep track this time and post the time later.

Thanks for the reply, I'll edit this post when I get mines down.. at least an average LOL

I think mine was around 10 minutes for the biggest map setting available, I've got a pretty beefy pc. (2700X, 32gb, 1080)

5 minutes for 8k world.

[Foolery]

Just under 6 mins for an 8k world (default settings). I will try a 10k for my next run.

5900x

Biggest map
Generating was some 25-30 minutes.
Loading for play is like 5 minutes.
Ancient i5 4670 16GB DDR3 RAM and mighty GTX460

[Squiffy]

Took me 13 minutes.

[Nameless]

about 10 minutes.

[SylenThunder]

Standard client
R9 3900X
32GB RAM
GTX 1070 8GB

10k maps take about 10 minutes.

Headless dedi
2x x5680
96GB RAM

14k map takes about 38 minutes. Haven't made a 10k in a bit.

If it says not responding don't worry; it will resume

Has anyone noticed much time variance depending on parameters used? eg, if you used all "few/none" vs. all "many." Anyway:

i9-9900k - 2080ti - 32GB ram - SSD

6k map: 3.5 minutes
8k map: 6.5 minutes
10k map: 9.5 minutes

...being a solo player I think I'll stick with the 6k maps. A20 makes some decent ones now. My fave so far has been this one because of the two cities that almost make a single huge city with three lakes near it. Those map generation settings are what I've been using most of the time. I like flatter maps.

Much improved vs. A19 - still hoping KingGen will update for A20 tho.

Sister decided we're doing an 8k map instead of 10k, 6.5-7mins. Pretty much inline with CatPerson's result- I'd imagine my 10k would be the same. Default map settings, no changes.

I generated a 6k map that took about 5.5 minutes to finish, but then it took another 7 minutes in the first play for that actual map to load (because it was generating POI's etc.) So it "looks" like they just "moved" some of the map generation to a different loading screen.

I have a mid range PC, and am running the game from an SSD, and in A19, game loading usually took only 30-60 secs depending on what mods I was running.

Haven't tried loading that save game yet to see if that makes any difference to the load time. (R/L got in the way of my A20 time dammit!)

I was hoping to answer this, but I'm currently 3 for 3 on crashes during the world gen. It seems I'm unable to generate a 10k world without crashing.
