Suddenly been having lag spikes.

[Slane117]

Been having seriously bad lag lately mainly leaving a planet. Use to be worse when the chat/whateveritscalled started spamming that Ares/Poseiden/Hades/Othernamesofgods are moving sporadically because don't have enough crew, I have no ships named any of these. The only thing I could think of are the weapons I had from the Eternals mod. Sold them. Nothing. Removed the mod. Nothing. Removed all recently downloaded mods. Nothing. Reloaded a autosave n it stopped the spam but still lag when taking off. Sold all ships n got a new ship. Nothing. Why with the lag spikes?

I get spikes too since the newest updates

Could you post a link to the save? Also a list of mods you had installed at the time would be helpful. You're correct in that weapons shouldn't be displaying a ship message.(shouldn't even be possible)

well, since it is a fault in your ships, it is a fault in your savegame, so removing mods probably just breaks more things than fixing them. please post your savegame.

If I press caps lock the lag becomes very visible

How do I send a lick instead of just pasting the save entirely?

Upload it to something like pastebin, dropbox, or google drive. While you're at it there should be an errors.txt in the same endless-sky directory. That would be helpful as well.

Copy the contents of your savefile to pastebin and post the link it provides here.
Also, try turning on CPU/GPU usage in the preferences and tell use what kind of numbers it says for each.
Also, try setting 'turret tracking' to 'focused'.

Ha, we got another Derpy with an "install all the mods" philosophy.

No, those aren't weapons in my plugin. The save file will tell us what's up.

Keep trying to paste but pastebin keeps not responding. Great.

I don't think I've ever seen my CPU or GPU usage go above 30% in this game, but it does lag heavily sometimes; and only since 0.9.8

(Jesus christ dude, do you really have to have every single mod ever made for this game? I run a heavily modified version or SU and a few others.)

CPU peaks at 342% ( N yah I pretty much just added mods, playing on the save I played the most)

Best advice I'm gonna guess would be just to remove some of the mods, pick out the small parts of a mod I do use n add them to another file before removing what I dont use n start a new game

There is a mission in the save file clocked in at over 100k lines of ships called hydra at host. find the mod that provides it if you dont mind. youll have to edit the save to remove it before you remove the mod.
