Suggestion for Reducing Lag

[nuocmamt]

Can we have the little red animated icon not be animated and instead be static. I think that would help with the lag issues I keep facing. When I remove the storage containers the lag I face reduces dramatically. Maybe have a checkbox for buildings or icons to be animated or not e.g. fully grown plants, algae terrariums, or algae deoxydizer. Sometimes when I zoom out, I don't even feel it is significant to have those buildings or processes be animated. It takes away from the survival aspect of the game and reduces that gameplay quality for me when I try to have more dupes in my colony. Please give feedback, I'm curious to know if removing animated icons or building decreases lag for oxygen not included.

It sounds like you're probably running below specs. This game is pretty demanding, my Core2Duo laptop plays it, but unhappily, and I wonder if I don't get worse play because of the AI having to wait on the CPU. Moving icons shouldn't affect your lag, IIRC, the biggest lag cause in this game is the storage compactors because the background sim is still running full temperature sim on them while they're in storage. Same with all the debris on the ground.
