4 month wait ... for this ☹️

Post by Kpla Keltak »

I started a new game on 2.6. Vanilla
Just updated to 3.0
Game is unplayable.
Very sluggish.
If I try to change any settings on a station.
Ie turret control.
The game freezes for 5 min. Even when paused.
The change is then applied to other stations.
I saved the game and exited. To make it a 3.0 game save.
Rebooted.
Restarted.
The game save is missing.

I am terribly sorry to tell you...but your post is beyond unhelpful.

First of all it should be feedback/support and not general.

Second you provide no info about your machine and settings. Are you on spec with the game?

If you happen to have an actual problem that the devs can fix, please try to be as thorough as possible so the devs can take an actual look at it and try to see if/what the issue is.

Are you on Steam? A missing save sounds more like a steam cloud or a windows issue.

OP, it sounds like your game update isn't installed correctly. Please run a Steam file verification. If that doesn't help then make a post in Tech Support with the relevant information and we'll see what else could be wrong, because clearly other people aren't having those problems. :)

I have never run any mods. Always vanilla 😂
If I tried the dark side I would never come back.

No problem. Every single PC game I play starts vanilla then I mod my play through to my liking as I progress. Not sure if you'd done the same.

I mod pretty much every game I play as there is usually something I'd like to tweak. Increased draw distance, QoL or UI mods et al. For me, they significantly extend & improve any PC game I buy.

I verified my game files on steam...it didn't report any errors.
I checked for an updated VGA driver but I already have the latest.
I reduced the graphics quality in game from high down to medium.
I played for an hour on this setting and it all seamed ok.
I have saved the game as 3.0
changed graphic settings back to high (AA)
had a quick 5 min and seamed ok but will verify tomorrow.

thanks

the game runs a lot smoother now......slightly faster than 2.6 did.

BUT, if I click on a station 'Loadout' button, the game will stall for a few minutes (not seconds) then display the loadout data, then stall again for a few more minutes even longer than the initial instance.

This doesn't sound right. As CBJ suggested - make a post in the tech support forum and (important) include your savegame. Only then devs have a chance to investigate and perhaps do something about it.

Also, ich glaube ehe es liegt daran das ich über zweihundert Stationen gebaut habe die sich alle gut verteidigen können.
Aber ich habe auch das Gefühl als ob alle meiner Stationen sich angesprochen fühlen und nicht nur der Einen den ich gerade verwalten will, wenn ich den "loadout" Knopf betätige.
