KayEhn Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 So, two things i have noticed.1) (As probably already said) When i have barely placed anything, not as much needed in-game to lag it, the editor jumps and skips around, lagging and causing my screen a lot. It takes quite a while when i want to get back to the original view i was at, and continue creating.2) I have noticed that when i switch from a map-editing tool (like modify, flatten, ect.) and then back to character placing, or sometimes just randomly, it changes from 'Player 1' to Gaia automatically. This has caused me a little bit of stress, sometimes finding i have placed half of the map before finding my mistake. Any way of fixing this next time round? Thanks-KayEhn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mythos_Ruler Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 Not sure what kind of lag you are experiencing with the editor. Perhaps post your specs and other information.About point number 2, yeah, that's bothered me more than a few times as well. Unfortunately, it's just not a high priority thing to fix. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KayEhn Posted April 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 Not sure what kind of lag you are experiencing with the editor. Perhaps post your specs and other information.-As in i press Q or E to rotate the view, it stops, and after a couple of seconds, jumps ahead, rotating further than i wanted by a lot. Same thing with movement. It happens so much, and freezes so much, i've gotten to saving and re-opening every couple of minutes.About point number 2, yeah, that's bothered me more than a few times as well. Unfortunately, it's just not a high priority thing to fix. :/-Okay, well at least i know i'm not the only one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KayEhn Posted April 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 Oh, and how do you download the important information from Map Editor? I'm new at the whole finding where the information is stored in the program files and such... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find this doesn't quite work correctly on my PC (I think this is the cause, not certain though). If I constantly move the mouse then everything runs smoothly, otherwise it is very jerky, maybe you have the same thing happening.This topic http://www.wildfiregames.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=15900&pid=237336&st=0entry237336 might help you with where the map editor saves file.

Moving the mouse around has proven to cut down on the lag quite a bit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ykkrosh Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 If you're on Linux, this bug caused poor Atlas behaviour for me and might be relevant - the display freezes until there's some kind of X event (e.g. mouse input). The patch is released in libxcb 1.8, but I haven't tested yet whether it fixes the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quantumstate Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 That sounds like the bug I am experiencing. I am afraid of breaking stuff when upgrading system libraries though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
