LET’S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Bruh the Dark Sea is laggy not cus of the Bronze Sea existing, but cus of an old unfixable roblox bug that causes issues with performance (it’s related to Wave hitboxes). Also This would kinda suck since you literally have to get tp on your ship (which would be kinda hard to code and might even have unknown issues). You also might even loose a lot of ship hp to the waves if it takes a while to load in lol
that’s part of the reason why it’s laggy
it doesn’t change the fact that a single server processing both the dark sea and the bronze sea would run slower than two servers processing both seperately
Dark sea just has stuff generate as you go in, so I doubt it even affects much outside of the problem with waves
maybe
i’m not a game dev so i can’t say with experience, but intuition tells me generating islands sometimes as large as ravenna could cause some lag, i would look into it if i was vetex
i am going fucking insane
I think im a schizofrenic. I’ve had a strong feeling that there was a patch regarding something about a cone hitbox related to reagent spawning and I don’t know why.
mandela effect
If that’s the case, then it would just be two laggy servers instead if you split them.
Your right on that actually, I’ve found out that most of my lag in-game was due to us spawning in Ravenna.
I’ve tested this between spawning in Wind-row, the sky (a glitch), and then frost-mill multiple times and it seems that Ravenna is the only island that gives you a drop in FPS.
It’s weird because when spawning on different islands other than Ravenna you don’t get an fps drop the moment you enter Ravenna, but only when you specifically spawn IN Ravenna… (and the fps drop doesn’t stop when you leave Ravenna when you spawn in Ravenna, you get me?)
Wait, weren’t there also complaints abt Mt Orthys (the biggest island in-game) causing MASSIVE fps drops for some people? I actually experienced this myself, I think my ping went up to 400-500 or maybe more one time. I assumed it could be because people were fighting there (cause pvp can cause ping spikes) and its also occasionally used as an alternative battle ground instead of Munera (the server I was in had a lot of mods/contributers so…)
With this, it might indeed be the island generation. If not, it could be some lad having an intense fight with Calvus or someone constantly punching the guards. Might be all three actually…
I’ve never had problems with Mt. Orthys myself (I tested it myself anyways) nor have I heard of people complaining about it but it’s a possibility that ALL large islands do in fact cause some performance issues.
That said, I think the reason why Ravenna seems to clump up performance is due to the many NPCs and different infrastructures, not to mention it’s destructible too (alongside 2 BOSSES lol) in comparison to Mt. Othrys where it’s just a singular temple and a few rocks and trees here and there, and not many interactive objects such as chests.
really?
me and my friends all hate gathering clearstone because our fps unironically drops to around 5 when in the caverns
Oh Titan Caverns? No I experience lag FREQUENTLY there, outside of that, not really.
I separated Othrys and Titan Caverns, sorry for the confusion.
Either something was wrong in Mt Orthys at the time, or a group of testers/contributors were really having an intense knock out there. For some reason, my ping drastically dropped when I was nearing there at the time. Hmm, could just be me.
Though, it’s weird. I personally never encountered major lag in the Caverns? Was I just too lucky?
i cant
3 days since the island was added. Why does it take so long to add a new patch note?
It’s been 3 days since an Arcane Odyssey patch note was released. I’m shaking and trembling. Please, Vetex, tell us what you’re working on, I am getting Insanity V in real life. I need more patch notes NOW! I am coming down with a fever and vomiting with intense diarrhea! Please help us all Vetex! I want to know what you’re working on! I am going to start rapidly losing life if I don’t get an Arcane Odyssey patch note in the next day. Please, Vetex, tell us what you’re doing, even if it’s moving or taking a break. I NEED MORE PATCH NOTES!!!
