Patch 1.21.0 is out! Added hard flux level indication and skill overrides. Quality Captains will release a compatibility patch.
Had a pretty hefty performance drop once I updated to 1.21, mainly in large fleet battles of upwards of 40 ships total (mostly the enemy, but also my own, where I deploy no more than 6-8 high-end ships with hullmods that buff their performance significantly).
Even on my potato of an outdated PC* I get well
above 30 FPS (even with 20 ships on-screen, it's closer to 45) @ 1600x900 in windowed mode and a battle size of 1200(!), with little if any lag/slowdown (excepting when Temporal Shell and related ship abilities are activated), but 1.21 changed that.
Afterwards, I average
under 30 FPS (sometimes as few as 10-15 FPS, same number of on-screen ships), with constant lag/slowdown; reverting to 1.20.7's .jar file (and also either renaming or deleting the 'data\characters\skills' sub-folder to prevent CTDs) fixed that issue. So, what gives Liral?
Are the skill(s) overrides to make them compatible with Realistic Combat's changes (most of which I do NOT use, disabling them in Toggles.json) eating up far more CPU time than before? And/or is it the 'hard flux level indicator(s)'?
