Very long loading time when any mods are enabled [2.0.76]

Post by smakdonw »

I am running on Bazzite via Steam.

Here are the specs:

Operating System: Bazzite 44
KDE Plasma Version: 6.6.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.25.0
Qt Version: 6.10.3
Kernel Version: 6.19.14-ogc1.1.fc44.x86_64 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland
Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D 8-Core Processor
Memory: 64 GiB of RAM (62,7 GiB usable)
Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon RX 6800

I tried disabling all mods and loading and it takes about 15 secs if that.

When loading with mods enable i have to wait for 10 minutes. it goes to running entity setup and just stays there for 10 minutes doing nothing. i can hear the ingame music playing in the background. Tried to disable all mods and enabling them 1 by 1.

it was fine for the first few and then it started taking 10 min to load again.

i went back and disabled the mods that i had enabled on the latest reload and the issue persisted.

Running on an SSD.

Any more tests i could do to try and understand what is causing the issue?


Hoping someone can be an end to my madness

It looks like the issue is caused by mod `Drox-Regenerative-Walls` which takes unreasonable amount of time in its on_tick handler. Its mod related issue.
