Massive lag in monster lairs
« on: September 17, 2012, 10:12:23 am »

So i'm on my newly generated monster island (this time with wanderers friend mod)
and whenever i get close to a lair my fps just go right into the single digits.
what might be the cause of this?

i also already killed 13 Ettins from that one lair and i know that there are more, haven't been more than 15 steps into the lair.
maybe there are just too many creatures

hm yes i have indeed come across several jabberer and voracious cave crawler leather items out in the desert...can anything be done to salvage the save?
when i get far enough away from the lair i can move easily and other lars have a lesser impact on responsiveness(might just be the hydras eating random wildlife)

My game responds the same way in heavily populated cities due to so many creatures making movement

well yeah, but there are like 2500 historical figures on the entire island... cant be that many in one lair.
i don't know the total creature population because aparently worlds without civs crash legends viewer (and worldviewer)

There's a bug with monster lairs that randomly spawns leather bits and lags the hell out of the game in Adv. mode. I think it has something to do with underground civs and their leather supplies.
