experiencin sudden performance issues (low fps) during large passages of the game. those problems WERE NOT there before latest patch. internet connection problems, computer performance issues are all discarded since I could play normally before latest update with the exact same setup. this interferes with everything, creates random idle villagers, and does not follow task queuing

HI @Aldarion1991 !

Thanks for this, we are already tracking this issue!

i spent most of the week thinking it might be my internet but i trew a skirmish game and i got the same problem… 30 fps when clicking many things. vils go idle out of the blue…

hope you get to fix this soon

Try going to main page → settings gear / cog at the top right → options → graphics tab → show advanced options → enable vsync; If it’s enabled already, try disabling it → confirm your changes → try a game and see if that helped.

Thank you, already tried that without any difference. Even minimum fps have dropped, 60 is to few compared whit what I had before.
