Before problem my FPS > 60!
After problem (Appears unexpectedly) my FPS/UPS = 4.8/53.7 | and Multiplayer UPS = 0.0

1) This happens only in multiplayer!
2) I noticed that this happens on servers where there are a lot of drones (may be over 400 i dont now).
3) This happens unexpectedly. At any time. Accompanied by the fall of the FPS. My FPS falls from 60 to 4.
4) When this happens I can not move, but I see what happens in the game.
5) The processor is busy at 20%.
6) Until the moment when drones appear I play stably with a high FPS (60), and I can do anything.
7) the problem can appear at any time - no matter what you do.

After I lose the ability to move I exit the game and start it again - this is enough for 5-15 minutes of normal play, then everything repeats again.

For exemple:
1) server name- "ExplosivGaming - S1 public"
2) Time when the first problem occurred: 16th hour of game
3) The approximate number of drones in the air was about 300.
4) there were 17 players when the problem appeared for the first time. (At the 7th hour of the game, there was 22 players)

I've never encountered this problem on servers where there are no drones!

Sorry for my english translation (google translation)

How can I help in finding this bug?

AMD FX 6200
Radeon R9 270x 2gb GDDR5
26 Gb RAM (Two-channel)
Internet 9 mb/s

Thanks for the report however this is working correctly. Your computer can't keep up with the server so it's dropping FPS to try to keep UPS up but still your computer can't keep up and you fall behind forever stuck in that state.

Simply put: you can't play on that map anymore unless they purposefully limit the game speed.

Ok but how you explaine - in old version i not have this problem.

+ I conducted a survey among those who played on the server. Some said they have weaker computers than me. They play normally but I can't.

Is this a weak computer?:
AMD FX 6200 (6 core processor - 3800Mhz - 16Mb)
Radeon R9 270x 2gb GDDR5
26 Gb RAM (Two-channel 1333 Mhz)
Now i have Internet over 30 mb/s

While the game is running, the processor is busy no more than 20%.

It is too weak to run your game at full speed, and that is all that matters. Your processor performs especially bad with the type of workload factorio produces.
