[176.38c] FPS plummets when traders leave
« on: March 01, 2008, 02:45:00 pm »

I've been playing fortresses on this computer with 100 dwarves and getting a framerate of an even 60 (it's capped at that), so I know my rig is ok. Anyway, with my current fortress everything was going fine, my framerate was 60, then the first dwarven wagon appeared. I traded with them fine, but as soon as I got the message "The merchants from [blah] have embarked on their journey" my FPS dropped to 18, and has stayed there ever since. It's really choppy as well, so it actually plays as though it's even lower than 18. I've noticed FPS dropping when merchants try to find their way out, but it usually goes back to normal when they get off the map. Not this time, apparently.

I can take a look at the save if you'd like.

Okay, I'm downloading it now and I'll see what I can figure out at some point.

I have the same issue.  As soon as the traders started to leave, fps dies.
