Hi,

I have noticed a significant drop in FPS after the latest patch when viewing the Planet View and issuing planet build orders. I have picked up a game I started a month before 1.4 launched. Every time I select the Planet View, the FPS drops from 60 to rappidly variying numbers between 7 to 20 fps.

When playing the game on fast in the Galaxy View everything seem to run fine, the drop just happens when opening the Planet View and especially when cycling through the planets.

I have already switched to Windowed mode and am running the game and Steam as Administrator. I have a very new machine with quite a lot of CPU ang GPU power and more than enough memory.

I have scoured the forum and the web and have seen many posts about fps drop/ lag/ low performance in general on large maps mid/ late game. I am plying on a huge map but I only have 2 small sectors (max 2 planets per sector).

Anyone have any idea?

If you revert to the 1.32. patch in the Steam Betas tab for this game, does the problem still occur?

Hi Andrew,
After completely re-installing Stellaris, I reverted back to 1.32 and the issue went away, then I re-installed 1.4.1 and all is still running fine! I am now midgame on the huge map and fps stays stable. This is excellent!

I did run into another oddity jsut now, though... I only recently ran into the Artisan Troupe. After communicating with them, comissioning an art work and becoming their patron, I wanted to communicate again. But... even though I click Communicate, the Diplomacy window does not appear for this race. For other races it is appearing as expected, however. Re-loading a Save Game seems to resolve the issue, but it it is still annoying. Is this a bug?

Not that I'm aware of, sorry. I have not experienced it myself. Did you search the Bug Reports forum ?
