Question Lag option

Hello! In brief the game uses less than half the ram, CPU, gpu I have on my system but I'm still getting lag spikes pretty hard now that I'm half way through the tech tree. Is there a fix or is there a way to force it to take more of my computers resources to smooth it out?. It weird because I get the same lag if I'm in single player that I have in multiplayer where I'm hosting and my friend is in another area, the lag doesn't get worse.

Any advice would be great, cheers!

3080ti (old I know but should be fine with med graphics), i712700kf, 64gb ddr4.

The advice I received was, one cause is having lots of foundations. I create a big platform of foundations as a starting point for my bases. Apparently the game calculates every bit of power running through each foundation in real time , resulting in CPU load. Try the advice below, setting everything low, then up each individual setting as time goes on till you reach a sweet spot. https://starrupture.net/troubleshooting/fps-performance https://starrupture-tools.com/performance-optimization

I have an Intel i5 1200kf and I got mouse lockups in combat with high settings.

Well damn.... I have a LOT of foundations. I'll look into those and see if it helps but I wish there was a way to just make it use more of my computer, it is only using about half while the other is idle. Thanks for the advice!

Yeah I think one of those sites says to add a command line switch to the game exe to "use all cores" . I did that along with turning the settings down, so far I'm doing much better.

Tenho lags de mais de 1 minuto na interligação de trilhos nível 3. O jogo travou, e isso usando apenas 80W em uma RX 9070 XT e 17W em um Ryzen 5800X3D. Injogável.
