Problems with "Single Player" in DST, any way to fix this?

[Abacus]

Hello, I am looking for a way to easily play by "solo". Right now, I have to create a server and run it every time I want to play. I like to connect to other servers, but I don't like that I lose my progress, that's why I want to play solo as well. I like DST instead of DS, because I love how many more things there are, but it latency lags so much with a lot of creatures, even playing on my own server. That is a problem. I don't have the best PC, but it can easily handle Great Spooder Wars as a in DS without a problem, but not DST.

I tried to "play offline, make offline server, make 1 player server, make it local only with local save", still nothing. Is there any mod that could do that? Allow me to play single player games without any of the troubles?

Thank you so much.

Do you have extra bucks? Maybe using hosting service to host your game online to take some load of your local machine. Occasionally, you can make some friends there too.

I'm not entirely sure, just put it here.

I recommend you to use Don't Starve Alone mod, its a good mod if you have performance issues and if you play DST alone.

You can also limit the FPS and enable Netbook Mode.

Thank you for your answers.

I don't want to pay hosting provider for a game I play once in a while, but I guess that is an option.

With the mod, unfortunately, I am getting "Dedicated Server Failed to Launch" error, even tho I am doing everything right. Who knows, will try to find another solution.

This is a issue regarding all platforms. It's sad how they never ever talked about it, and will probably never do. I lost my hopes of them fixing it.

 

I'm literally screaming "I WANT TO PLAY YOUR GAME", but i just can't with that input lag.

I fixed it. It's not perfect, but it works nicely. This fixed both latency lag with servers and FPS lags from items cluttering on the ground and environment.

Local Only, One Player, Local Save, OFFLINE

The Single Player Mod sometimes errors when making a new world, just generate until it works. Caves load a bit slower and sometimes it crashes when going in (in around 1/10 cases) with no progress lost, tho.

Hope it works for you.
