Performance Issues
So I have been getting a lot of reports in the comments about this mod having major performance issues, unfortunately I haven't been able to reproduce these issues on my game.

I'm starting a discussion here about performance issues in particular, I'd like to find out what's causing these issues.

last time i got it fixed, an addon about half life 2 entities was the source of the problem. maybe it freaks out if any hl2 entities are overrriden?

OH, that could be right! Would you send the link of the addon?

it got removed from the workshop, but there other ones i use in my game
here they are
More Half-Life 2 NPCs
Half-Life 2 Tools Extras
Half-Life 2 Tools
Half-Life 2 Entities +PLUS+
Enhanced Damage 2.0
i suspect this addon is conflicting with the drowning system implemented in your addon, maybe its one of the reasons?

let me know if i can help you with anything else

Excellent, I'll start testing these out.

its been a while now, did you get any abnormal results?
JC Bent'em  [developer] Feb 8, 2020 @ 3:21pm 
Nope, I haven't gotten anything strange or any lag at all even when testing these all at once and individually.
YeOl'Choppa Feb 10, 2020 @ 10:19am 
im testing my addons once again to see which one is causing this, maybe we can find a pattern here if we're lucky enough

Localized Physics mod causing performance issues aswell, for some damn reason...
k.o kirbe Feb 16, 2020 @ 6:57pm 
localized physics isn't the stableist of addons so theres likely a lot of things it will conflict with
YeOl'Choppa Feb 17, 2020 @ 9:51am 
still doesn't make it clear on how is it conflicting, which part of the code.

For me the suit will rapidly switch between my PM and the Suit.

So I was able to give myself some major performance issues that I will begin testing for at some point, I was playing a big map with my friend and us both wearing hev suits caused massive ping rise. So I think I have a lead.

It has something to do with the player model switching I might need to lower the timer rate or something.
KingCaleb115 Jan 8, 2021 @ 3:29pm 
so have you done that yet because i just try it out and my games just crashes every time
JC Bent'em  [developer] Jun 3, 2021 @ 10:30am 
The last update slowed down the timer for player model switching, so it should run better now.
