MidnightSteam Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 I can't seem to play anymore since it lags too much. Could someone load it and see if it lags on their PC? I'm down to about 1-2 fps... This could be the limit for this PC if it's working normally. Thank you for your help.

Oozinator Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Woah storage locker invasion ^^ Yes i get 1-3 FPS max. You can prevent that a bit, when you store only one material in one storage locker and then lock them up, in a locked room. That really helps. I try to store most in locked rooms like here. Look at my FPS left top corner and i run an old i-2500k.. Sometimes it drops below 20, but after the performance updates, it runs ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidnightSteam Posted November 18, 2017 Author Share Posted November 18, 2017 Whew, glad it wasn't just me. Yeah, I'll start sectioning each material to their own storage bins. And Thank You! That was really helpful. I deconstructed the storages and swept the floor using debug mode but that didn't do much. However after turning a good portion of the bottom map into abyssalite...I went from 1 fps to 19 fps! Which makes sense because the lag started when I dug close to the oil biome. I know the picture shows 9 fps but this is with the whole map visible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Octyabr Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Whoa man, go easy on paths! Do this and fps rockets to 60: Spoiler If you give duplicants way too many possible paths, the game tries to calculate all possible combinations, make paths as linear as possible, that means ladders in only one column. Something more or less like this (mind the mess) Spoiler With that in mind (remember, 1 column ladders) it now runs at 22~30fps:TheSuperDuperAcropolis.sav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidnightSteam Posted November 18, 2017 Author Share Posted November 18, 2017 @Octyabr HOLY! You've worked some kind of magic! I replicated your save by deconstructing the ladders and changing some doors and WOW! I am amazed. Yes 20 fps! I'll have to redesign the whole base. And Thank You! Now I can actually listen to music while playing. My jaw hasn't come back from the floor yet. Good night. I'll come back tomorrow if there are other replies.

I can't comprehend this, it's like moon speak to me right now. Can I get a picture with infographics? Pretend I'm a talking, typing pigeon and assume my capacity for learning is rudimentary at best.

Sorry for the trouble. I think he meant one wide ladders. Meaning just one column vertically and not 3 columns right next to each other. If you look at the screenshot from the earlier post you can see multiple ladder columns side by side. Instead of each ladder segment having two possible paths up and down, each row also has sideways movement. You are making every tile navigable which will hurt when the game is finding a path for dupes to move to. The difference is quickly noticeable and over a larger area it can get worse. In regards to the doors he is showing again by locking all the dupes in one place that by limiting their potential paths you gain a performance boost.

Lifegrow Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Well my current stream playthrough is starting to get unplayable at cycle 250ish, so I'll be trying this next stream for sure - i'll report back then This all looks very promising though, had never considered simple pathing changes could be so impactful - but it makes so much sense...

I guess I'm out of luck, I learned to do 18 tile layout rooms watching a few of your recent streams, so I'm not going to get much benefit from this, I'm terrible at layouts, so your videos were helpful. I tend to keep it simple. I enjoy watching your youtube videos, but can I ask that you continue to enable automatic machine generated closed captions? They're not perfect, but it helps me understand what you're saying when I can't otherwise. I had to rewind more than a few times on the latest (2nd) automation playthrough because the machine captions weren't available. Please consider adding them, I quite like your accent, I just struggle at times because I'm an American with little exposure to your accent. I'm getting a bit better though, with the captions anyway. I know those form of captions aren't perfect, but they're better than none. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chemie Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 My CPU and GPU are both at ~40% the whole time and I only get 15 fps. Weird optimization. All 4 cores show even 40% with 64 threads from ONI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
