DST + caves = lag

[Actimel]

Do im alone notice a bit of lag when picking items from the ground when vanila server and caves are set? It sometimes bother me, because some actions takes longer/ lagger/ delayed.

p.s I have high end MSI notebook with Killer performance network, also home internet 300mbps.

Is there any way to increase the speed ? Since starting only vanila server game runs smooth, picking items is smoothly

[Exaulted]

No lag at all and I use ethernet

Are you hosting the server? If not what is the server called. In addition to that what part of the world are you located?

[Actimel]

I think im hosting the server, but always picking open to all server, not local.. never tried local server, gonna try today. Im now not in game, but the server I created was - Actimel . I live in Lithuania, where we have best internet in the whole world :)

well not everyone I think Will understand the "LAG" meaning, lag is where your actions are delayed, yet its not realy big problem, but when you play without caves the game runs smooth and you can feel that like day n night, but when caves pop's in, its like having +10% +15% delay when picking items and kite monsters

[Vativ]

What do you mean with caves pop in?

[Actimel]

I mean when choosing the game with Caves

Disable all your mods.

[Actimel]

I dont play with mods

Are you trying to generate Large map setting?
Large forest map + Large Cave map + faster renewal speed = laggy servers aswell.

If so try;

default forest map + small cave map + default renewal speed and no extra resources

[BIT Bear]

In general adding in Caves make the world laggy. Especially over a longer period of time.
I found that reducing the amount of birds spawning helps a little too.

[Actimel]

Yeah, im making always Huge worlds. Lesser worlds dont like. What is renewal speed?

[BIT Bear]

Yeah Huge worlds cause massive lag.
Imo the default map size is big enough but to each their own.

There's a setting that let's you alter the speed at wich resources regenerate themselves.
On default they spawn back in about ~1 year after harvesting (all 4 seasons), faster is every season and fastest means every ingame week or so and it can cause alot of lag.

They don't cause MASSIVE lag but they do cause a little more lag then normal.

Hmm, so solution is to make Caves map to as tiny as possible? Didnt even noticed that option, I was just enabling caves and press world generating. Gonna try, but now im already at 19 day with my laggy world :/

[Actimel]

just checked, even making a tiny small Caves server, the lag is the same, no matter what. it mostly feels when attacking, some of the attacks delayed and monsters hit faster.

I guess I will make only Forest server without caves, but its sad, that both of these cant be played for full fun :/

If you want to play in caves there is a mod that lets you have caves above ground.
