input lag (linux/proton)
ok, so linux stopped to working after some game update (I have reinstalled it recently), and now with proton I have random lags for inputs (keyboard and mouse).
For a second or so game stops to reach for inputs.. what can I do with this?

regards

I don't think this has to do with the game, but with Proton itself.

I see. it is unplayable, I have tried all versions of proton.. :/
p.s. linux fails for me due to glibc 2.9 version (I have 2.8), wasted money on DLC.. it feels like devs think it is normal to sell game and then break it along the way. I guess GOG to go, fk this.

ok, I got some workaround for myself.
1. I set "scroll outside window" to ON
2. borderless window
3. max speed for camera move
4. set refresh rate limit and resolution to native. (this probably is not required)
It works with mouse without lag but with keyboard it still lags.
not sure why it works though. probably is still lags but with less than 100ms, because I do not feel it

thank you. I have wasted some time on it and I did not search forums too much, but I got it working with custom build from source. something like that
-------
1. get source
wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libc/glibc-2.29.tar.gz

2. build
mkdir $HOME/Downloads/glibc-2.29
mkdir $HOME/Downloads/glibc-2.29/src
mkdir $HOME/Downloads/glibc-2.29/build
mkdir $HOME/Downloads/glibc-2.29/binary
cd $HOME/Downloads/glibc-2.29/build

$HOME/Downloads/glibc-2.29/src/configure --prefix=$HOME/Downloads/glibc-2.29/binary
make

3. use it in the game - add shortcut options:
LD_PRELOAD="$HOME/Downloads/glibc-2.29/build/math/libm.so.6" %command%
-------

this is resolved for me. but personally, I see no reason for devs to break their game like that. this world is doomed.

regards
