Left over 'bullets' after large battle

Post by Scoob »

Hi,

Thought I'd mention this even though I've seen nice FPS improvements from the 1.2.1 patch as it may be something that causes slowdown during and after large battles.

Basically (pre 1.2.1) I was witness to a large fight in Loomankstrats Legacy. Boron Fleet coming through the North gate, Paranid through the South, pirates in the middle.

After the fight I was flying around collecting loot when I noticed 'stuck' CIG bullets stationary in space, I also saw a fair amount of Flak 'clouds' that were just stuck there & hadn't dissapated. I would have though that a large number of such objects still being around could potentially cause an FPS drop.

I've not confirmed it but I suspect that once you leave the sector this sort of thing is automatically cleared up - still, if you spend a while there it may cause problems.

Anyone else seen this? It would also happen rarely in X3:R.

Cheers,

Scoob.

Yep, I've seen this happen too, after a huge fight there were some "bullets" floating in space, some of them were rotating really slowly.

I've seen a lot of those. It's normally those blue ones that explode, carried by a lot of M6s. I don't remember what they are called but pirates love them it seems.

I am also seeing this after large battles. FWIW, I often saw this bug in Reunion as well.
