Summary0020834: Zooming into Grenade Launcher explosion effects causes fps/simulation speed drops
DescriptionThe title.

For some reason, when zoomed out these effects do nothing to your FPS, but zooming in can cause lots of problems. For my computer (Ryzen 1500x / Nvidia 760), it drops the simulation speed to 65% with max zoom and a full cap of tech level 2 grenade launcher ships.

By zooming in on intense effects and asking the GPU/CPU to render them in detail, you are putting more load on the system, so it slows down....

It just seems odd, this is the only effect that does this and it doesn't seem that taxing. I know bloom can cause some slowdown when intense, but it seems like a bit much.
