Bug, the game stucks every 1 second (FPS drop)

[KOPYk4T]

I've read that another people also have this problem. When I start DayZ the game stucks for 1 sec every second, making imposible playing and aiming.

Oh, and it get worst when the time go forward. After 30 mins, its imposible to play. A lot of people have this problem

It's like a timer bug, like if the gamemode is checking something every second and it lags the game

I thought that it was another resource, but then i started only DayZ, and still laggy with this FPS drop

It's something related to loot i think. My server started with a weight of 5.5 mb, and after 3 hours it was like 11.6 mb to enter

Oh, and i tried another servers with this version and they also have this problem.

Then i created a local server, with another DayZ Gamemode (older ones, like 2 years old) and it did'nt have this problem

This problem does not happen to me. I use the '0.9.9a'. The only problem that occurred was when using the 'item morphine'

We have been studying this case for a long time by now. We couldn't find what causes this problem, but we are still trying to find it. Any help coming from the community is very welcome.

About the increasing weight of the server: I think that it is the item respawn. Because i let it 2 hours and it increased now from 5mb to 7.5 mb and it doesn't stop

I've found the error.

I've been deleting a lot of the code in the meta.xml to discard where it was the problem

And the problem is in one of this:

<script src="handlers/world/client/night/c_night.lua" type="client" cache="false" />
<file src="handlers/world/client/night/mta-helper.fx" type="client" />
<file src="handlers/world/client/night/night.fx" type="client" />

Like i said, it was checking every second if it was on night or not. That was lagging.

I changed 1 sec in c_night.lua to 5 mins

Since night and day are periodic events, is it really necessary to check for it every second?

[Risusama]

I'll make a change soon in my repo and create a pull request for it. For starters, I'll set it to 5 minutes. Plus, I'll also make it easily configurable.

[jdmNTC]

Were you able to solve the problem? Can I do it with my gamemode so I do not suffer too?

[jdmNTC]

Did you just delete the 'meta' and stop the 'lag'?

[KOPYk4T]

<script src="handlers/world/client/night/c_night.lua" type="client" cache="false" />

Find that file, and then find this line... end,1000,0,clone) and this one... nightTimer = setTimer(night_check, 1000, 0) Now you have to change the 1000 for a 300000 like this... end,300000,0,clone) nightTimer = setTimer(night_check, 300000, 0)
