Description
Ever get tired of how much lags NPCs can cause? This mod changes the number of threads starbound uses from 2 to 4. It's probably worth noting that if your computer has only 2 cores or less, this won't actually cause a speedup, in which case this mod isn't for you. Ideally, you should check how many cores/logical processors your computer has; 4 threads is optimal for computers with 8 logical processors/4 physical cores. For those who want it, there's also 8-, 6- and 3-thread versions (see below).

Compatibility: This mod only changes a setting regarding how Starbound runs a server (for those who don't know, Starbound runs both singleplayer and multiplayer as servers), so there should be no possibility of mod conflict or issues when uninstalling.

Non-steam version: http://community.playstarbound.com/resources/more-threads-lag-reducer.4927/
8-thread version: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1107664957
6-thread version: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1108757797

@Nakashi22 the description says specifically that the 4 thread version is for processors with 8 logical processors and 4 cores. You only have 2 cores and as it says in the description, it won't work for you.

how odd, worked, the npc's dont slow, but everything else got slightly worse. still a positive trade, but its worth noting.

Old "Intel core i5 7th gen" here, the mod seems to make the game worse, the informational application says that this processor has 2 cores and 4 threads

The thing is, even in a single player session, the computer acts as both server and client. So the game makes the computer assign a number of logical processors to act as a server, and another number of similar value to act as the client.

All this mod does is change that number for the server from 2 to 4.

TL:DR; Whoever wrote the Frackin Universe wiki doesn't know how things work.

Unfortately, it doesn't work.
"Methods that absolutely never work - Any 'fps improver' and 'thread increaser' mods - these are placebo. They don't work."

"Why they can't work: Starbound mods simply don't have the engine access that would allow them to 'increase threads', etc. Any mod that claims to do so is lying/fraudulent. It doesn't matter how plausible it sounds: they are incorrect or lying."

Starbound isn't Rimworld.

the mod's outdated, and I don't think it's still being worked on considering that it was last updated like 5 years ago

Still only using two
doesn't work at all
