Good question.

Some report FPS-drops and a 'laggy' experience. As I don't have any problems and most Alpha-testers (so far I know) have no issues in that regard as well, I am not able to recreate and fix this problem easily. My mod adds several new mechanics and hidden calculations. So, maybe this is the reason but it doesn't explain why some have problems and some like myself do not.

My primary system: Ryzen 7 5800X, RTX 3070, 32GB RAM
Resolution & FPS: 4k and 60FPS (But I lowered it to 30 FPS as this game does not need more and I like my GPU silent and cold)

My secundary system: Ryzen 5 2600, AMD RX 470, 16GB RAM, Resolution & FPS: WQHD and 60FPS


I have never seen lower FPS than 30 (outside of a monthly tick where it does not hurt) and while playing in 60 it goes down sometimes to 45 minimum at very high game speed.

Possible solutions for you:

1. Check whether you have all needed mods installed
2. Check the load order of the depended mods
3. DO NOT USE ANY OTHER NOT MENTIONED MOD
4. Check your Energy and Performance settings for your GPU and CPU
2. Check the load order of the depended mods (this time carefully^^)
5. Do not use the OBSERVER. The FMO mod has recurring bugs there :(
6 Disable Nvidias G-Sync, use the ingame V-Sync instead
7. Set you FPS output at a specific level like 60 FPS or even lower (this game is like a board game with almost no animations ;) ) for saving energy, your GPU and the entire planet^^
This way you never experience a FPS drop from 300 to 'laggy' 200 ;)
8. try my performance sub test mod and report there if this helps https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3239492640
9. If you have a weak PC anyway use the performance map mod from this mod but load it on top of everything else
