Odd brook-related "slowdown"
« on: November 01, 2007, 05:33:00 pm »
Okay, so I started a fortress by a brook, hoping to make use of some clean, energy-efficient, hydro-power. However, I noticed that while playing with the new version, my framerate was at 80 +/- 20. It would erratically fluctuate between 60 and 100. This in itself didn't seem too odd, until I noticed that only 30% of my processor's power was being used, while a usual game that's under 100 fps takes 50%.

I then tried setting my framerate cap to 150, and lo and behold, suddenly my framerate went up to 110 +/- about 20.

Really weird.
