The lst time i played EvE online and i had 3k+ People on the same grid there was a thing like time dialation.

I would not call this baddly optimised i call this to be expectd hazard.

Next time be more gentle on the cheat buttons the game and your computer will thank you later for it. :snaggletooth:

I go from 60fps in space, 45 at worst in stations, to like 15 when I open my map lol.

Edit: wow you have 3 thousand ships you need to get rid of? That's even possible?

Just send them into Zenon space... one...at... a... time.... :)

3k+ seems like a tad excessive, lol. Just sell a batch of them at a time if can and make sure no where near that sector.

Yes.

It's call start a New Game.

Next time try not to cheat so much, you'd enjoy the game more. Trust me.

I have 500 ships. Without even trying. 3000 is a lot but easily doable. Easily.

Just one carrier of mine has 68 ships. If the 14 frigates had the 2 fighters each they could carry as well that is 96 per carrier. Getting ships on and off carriers is such a monumental chore I gave up on loading them fully. Not worth the effort.

So that is nearly 100 per carrier and I have maybe 20 carriers. That's 2000 to fit out my carriers alone.

Some destroyers can carry nearly as many ships but the fewer docking bays reduces it because it cannot store them on deck. Internal storage is equal to carriers. Silly....

Since fleet combat is borked I haven't bothered loading much anymore but there is potential. And I have multitudes of destroyers.

If someone was wanting to go for the most ships ever record then....well......... the mind boggles.

I would be interested in know if storing ships away on carriers, destroyers, and docks significantly reduces lag or not though.

You've got more than three thousand ships along with all the AI ships in your game and you're calling not optimized? You've got to be kidding.

"Large fleets and such"... you've been jumping on the sofa and are accusing Ikea od poor quality when it breaks? Where's the disconnect here? Let's work this out.

Just go to your property window, click on a ship, scroll down if needed, hold shift+click to select the whole lot and then click on a shipyard to sell and they will vanish.
It pretty much works like windows file selection :)

The question I have is how the hell you even remotely controlling those ships in any way?

PS you can’t sever destruct ships. Park them in xenon space maybe OOS. Might take a bit for the Xenon to widdle them down.
If you mass sell them, they still exist in your world as private vessels.

Send them all to tharkas cascade. This sector eats up shields and hull integrity - they don´t even have to battle there in order to vanish.
I call this sector my personal trashcan.

You've got to be in that sector for them to take any damage from the radiation.

3k ships is really not that much considering scale of game. I have 50 ships at each of my stations... some traders, some security, some couriers. I could easily have 50 stations if I actually bothered to deliver all the ones I build on the station missions, and that 's not even counting sector fleets to provide security where most valuable stations are. I think I would restart by then though, because it is already getting boring... need dramatic wars to actually come in and wipe out sectors to keep things interesting.
