lagging in freeplay after update to 0.13.13 on Linux

Post by wilx »

Hi.

I have a freeplay game that I started in December 2014. I have been playing it through different version of Factorio both before and after publishing on Steam. The explored and built over map is huge. After update to 0.13.13 I am experiencing some lagging in the map. This is on Linux. Maybe you could use the attached save game to profile and speedup your code. :)

I looked at your save and there's nothing particularly slow about it. You'e simply built enough that the computer can't keep up with the simulation.

On my computer it still runs at 60/60 with about 9 MS/tick used out of the max 16 MS/tick before it starts slowing.

There's no bug, you're simply at the limits for what the game simulation can handle.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

Strangely, the lagging stopped after I exited the game and later started it again.

This is Phenom II X4 with Radeon 5460 using open source drivers.

It's the CPU, on my Phenom II X4 955 (3.2 GHz) I also only get ~46 FPS/UPS and a game update time of 20ms with your save.
