Summary0019336: Massive slow down in gameplay
DescriptionAfter playing a couple games I have noticed that after a while I get massive slowdowns in the game play. The camera moves at the same speed but the ships and their shots are slowed down a lot. So far it seems to happen when I am sending my fleet back to my starting world to defend against a wave. If I save and restart the game the issue is gone. This is happening on Windows 10. Haven’t had chance to test on Linux yet.

Looking at the ArcenDebugLog I found the following repeating endlessly during the time it happens.

I have tested further and I am able to repro in Linux. In order to repro you need to enable the dyson at an intensity of 7 or higher. As to the null error, I quoted above I have not been able to repro that any further so it is probably not related to this performance issue.

When the Dyson intenity gets up that high it starts spawning ships quite quickly. Perhaps you're just experiencing the normal effects of having that many ships in the galaxy

After updating to 0.701, I loaded a game that has a intensity 8 dyson. Although the game did slow down occasionally it wasn't even close to as bad as before. This was with about 86000 in threat roaming around. I think with further updates this will only improve as stuff gets fixed and efficiencies improve.

Let's continue to monitor this and reopen this case later if needed. Thanks.
