b FPS drop when hovering over machines

7 years ago
(updated 7 years ago)

I started a new world today with this mod and discovered that it is causing large FPS drops whenever I mouse over most machines (specifically tested on miners, inserters, and furnaces). FPS will typically drop from 60 to around 25, but UPS stays steady at 60. I figured it may have been due to a bad interaction with another mod, so I tried disabling all mods except Darkstar and the problem persists. Also verified that after disabling Darkstar the FPS drop no longer occurs.

Edit: Some machines cause both FPS and UPS to drop (research labs for example).

I always had this issue aswell in older versions, i sense fixed this issue on my end and released a patch for fixing lag, yet for some reason people are still getting lag and i have no clue why.
Edit: are you on the newest version? and if so are you on a world made on a version before 0.15.6?

Yeah I was using 0.15.8, and the world was created with that version as well. Have not tested with 0.15.9 yet

Edit: Still lagging in 0.15.9
