[Optimization] Huge pauses/lag in game – Train Fever /forums/topic/optimization-huge-pauseslag-in-game/feed/ Wed, 30 Apr 2025 12:36:08 +0000 https://bbpress.org/?v=2.6.13 en-US /forums/topic/optimization-huge-pauseslag-in-game/#post-16087 <![CDATA[[Optimization] Huge pauses/lag in game]]> /forums/topic/optimization-huge-pauseslag-in-game/#post-16087 Sat, 17 Jan 2015 03:22:59 +0000 HPoltergeist Hi Guys!

 

First of all, you’ve made a fine and detailed game! Good job!

But:

I have a serious problem. After a couple of hours played the game starts to have pauses terribly. For example for every 5 sec of playtime there is a 10 sec pause/lag in the game.

It makes the game almost unplayable, that’s why I’ve stopped playing it.

As I saw the game makes saves of the size of 0,5 GB or so. That’s quite huge, also to handle these, can cause the mentioned pauses in game on autosaves and on other calculations.

Maybe there is something that needs to be optimized badly.

My PC:

AMD FX 8120

ASUS M5A99X EVO

8GB DDR3 1666MHz

ASUS Radeon R9 270X TOP 2GB

OCZ Vertex 3 SSD

Please do something about it, I don’t think my PC is the problem. =)

Thank you very much for your efforts and the good game,

HP

I’m afraid you’re correct, it’s not your system, it’s the game’s core not being optimised to use hyperthreading properly, ie, it doesn’t make proper use of multicore CPUs , only using one or two of the cores at most which after a couple of hours of play, grinds the game to a halt.

I personally LOVE this game but have given up trying to play it as when I just start to make real progress, I get the same problem which makes it totally unplayable. I only keep popping in here to look for news of a potential fix but so far, all we’ve really got are silly little patches that don’t address the main problems. Simple fact is, we’ve all paid for a game that is no more than than an Alpha or Beta version at best and now we have done so, all we can do is hope the devs can eventually fix it.

If the game runs uninterrupted for a long time, performance suffers. I’ve resorted to quitting and restarting the game about every two hours, which alleviates the issue somewhat.

That’s true, not much I’ve looked into the previous topics, I’m sorry for that.

But, I’ve also haven’t found any connecting topics and I won’t read through all of the 40 or so “one or two word title” topics sometimes in foreign language. If this is really that huge and prioritized issue, it should be a fixed topic amongst the first few ones or at least in the most common issues section.

So I join the club, waiting for the fix for this. Then I’ll continue playing. =)

Thank you,

HP

There are still many huge pauses in game (independently of autosaves) after placing, converting a route segment, or just randomly.

This game still needs huge optimizations. But, at least more or less it’s playable now.

Also I have some other problems with the game what I’ll detail later in an other thread.
