This mod is obsolete, rimworld already did optimizations on raids.

Would like to see a loading optimization mod as it takes FOREVER with a decent size modlist

So, If anyone even reads this, Does this work? Since this guy mentioned rimworld did something to improve lag

Dead mod

In the description of the mod, it states:

"About update for 1.1, Tynan already did a huge job to improve rimworld's performance.
there's already an expermiental version of this mod(structure is slightly different) but the difference is smaller than I expected. so for now, no update is planned."

I believe this mod can be considered obsolete.

You did your part

well that's a way to optimize raid spawns
like, there's no need to optimize anything if nothing is going to spawn

Dont use the test version for 1.1, it causes raids to not spawn

@the Dutchman, yes OVER a month prior, nearly a month and a half, and then absolutely nothing.

I couldn't find the unofficial update thats spoken of but there is an official test version here https://github.com/zzzz465/Rimworld-Optimization-Collections/releases

rjwaters, are you incapable of scrolling and reading? There was an update. Smh, some people

Hope you are doing alright, saw that video on the pawn generation, hope you get some free time.

we dont care if its the most optimized thing ever! or even if youre actually ready to update! any sort of additional information would be amazing! even if its just a 'something popped up, im incapable of working' or 'i got lazy' any new information would be great

I need this mod so bad <3

Great must have mod thank you for all your work hoping to see you in 1.1 and many up coming releases shame they don't pay to have your code added to the game.

Hey, Madeline, how are you doing? Quarentined too?

i hope this get released soon , love this mod

release please - want it badly =)

Is this for 1.1?

Just watched the video and that was some really nice loading times. By nice I mean instant loading time. You just spawned the raid and boom. You got the raid no lag no nothing.

now we have a working new optimized code,
testing video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hNV4LNkARcw
I'm still fixing some errors and doing more additional patching, to get higher performance.
please stay tuned!

Ok so I think I understand how this mod works now and I will explain for anyone who is confused. So when Rimworld spawns raids the game spawns all the raiders at once. Just vomits them out.

When this happens Rimworld is like "Hey CPU can you process this info for me." and the CPU is like "Yea here since you are a single core game take this core to use." Rimworld then proceeds to whip out a massive packet of info and tries to mash it into this one core and with many mods this "packet" can be MASSIVE.(Along with is usual flow of info)

So what this mod dose is instead of spawing a whole chunk of raiders it trickles them in one by one.

currently I have a research project to do... so updated would be delayed.
sorry for that.
also I'm planning to make an alternative mod that do the work similar to this.

Any plans on updating for 1.1? That would be amazing!

it only conflicts with the ATOM upgrade of TACS. the rest of rimatomics works fine
^.^

Just to clarify, is it just the ATOM upgrade that's the problem or TACS alone as well.?

@i2ID
this mod just change how the raid works internally.
also for the mod like "sometime raids go wrong" which use custom events, I put a avoiding code so non-vanila mod won't be affacted by this mod.

@TheXev
I'll make a option for that.

if you mean the letter then there is a mod for that. This mod doesnt change any messages its just like vanilla raids... unless i missed some settings or something ?

also @Madeline how does this mod work with "sometimes raids go wrong" will it have a 1/20 chance of spawning a meteor / manuhunter pack ect per raider spawned >?

I really really like this mod and what it does. Is there anyway the non-event message for a Raid can be disabled so it acts more like Vanilla?

it only conflicts with the ATOM upgrade of TACS. the rest of rimatomics works fine

Really sad that it conflicts with Rimatomics

ok. Got worried there ^^

@Putti l
this mod prevent rimworld freezing. but the core part that make lag are not easy to fix. also lazy-spawning is not supported in vanila rimworld, so... to prevent crash/bug I have to stop players saving game while spawning.

Is it normal for it to lagg quite heavy when spawning raid then? My lates raid spawn i got a message about (Do not save now please wait) thingy.

@⎛⎝RubbelDieKatz⎠⎞ personally i use this mod right up untill the point where i have the ATOM for TACS researched and installed. I find that when I have a lategame base that has an ATOM the raid is not a supprise to me anyway

I can't make it compatible without writing additional codes dedicated to them

to ⎛⎝RubbelDieKatz⎠⎞
rimworld have a support for modding but that is ensecured when the modder do stuffs on the base system, more easily, allow to modify.
however, this mod modify the very core structure, like how massive count of pawns are spawned, where the pawn should be appeared to scene, etc...

I personally find RimAtomics' defenses and Preemptive Strike quite essential. Who's at fault with the incompatibility? Since RimWorld seems to be programmed with mod support in mind, the code structure should be modular in nature and compatibility issues shouldn't arise, so it should be relatively easy to work around these incompatibilities, shouldn't it?

it would seem this mod has a problem with Raids For Me and Rimsenal, with Raids For Me it would force a raid from a random faction instead of the one you insulted and for Rimsenal it prevents the faction raiders from having any armor. Luckily both problems were solved by simply loading this after them. great mod by the way, long gone are my days of the game crashing when a raid shows up.

@i2ID thx i see it now

@sah when you say caravans do you mean trade caravans that visit your map? if so this was already answered just a few messages ago ^.^
if you mean your own caravans to visit an ally to make a trade i am not sure how this mod can help ?

Can u do same thing to caravans ?

if you didn't used any mods except this, can you share your savefile? I need to recreate that bug to examine what causing that error.

ok I'll dig into it. thank you for report

No. It's what controls the pawn AI in Rimworld if I remember right.

@Demonlord09 is "LordManager" a mod?

It happens repeatedly spamming the error log across multiple save files. It's part of something that's breaking the LordManager that I haven't managed to nail down yet.

@Joko I'm planned to make that either.

it is possible to make a version like this for traders? my game dont freeze anymore when raiders come, but traders keep freezing my game lol

@Demonlord09 is it occured constantly? or happened just one time?
