Title: mem leak
Reproduction Rate: 1/1
Blocker? no
Details: after playing for a while, i started to get some lag spikes and checked the memory usage. 9.6 gb
Steps to Reproduce:
User Specs:
OS: Linux 4.4 ManjaroLinux 16.06.1 64bit
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4430 CPU @ 3.00GHz (4) System RAM: 16004
GPU: GeForce GTX 970/PCIe/SSE2 GPU RAM: 1024
SotA.EarlyAccess.Linux.64.451.Date.07.29.16
Area: Novia
Loc: (98.7, 15.8, -21.3)

 

Hmmm. That may be your Registry abscounding more memory to account for all the corpses you have opened.... Seriously though, 9.6 gb or 9.6 Gb... a big difference.

 

...dude. if you'd read the system specs, you'd see there is no registry.

 

I was asking if you were usinng 9.6 Gigabytes or 9.6 gigabits of memory. On the registry issue, if you are using an operating system that uses a registry, then take a look. Every container you open is recorded there as a registry entry (or so I understand).

 

No, you were taking a poke at me for capitalization after having failed to properly spell absconding and you haven't kept up with port's reaction to the former registry problem as well as i have,when it doesn't even affect me.

 

My last post... Gb is gigabytes and gb is gigabits. Really, I do not know what you meant in the OP, but 9,6 gb did not make the point that a load of memory was used. I did not assume you spelled it wrong, sorry.

 

However it is Gb or GB.. not lower case g

 

Ignoring the extraneous discussion of proper capitalization, can you elaborate of the issue observed? What scene were you in, what were you doing at the time, how long had you been playing, and for how long in that scene? Have you been able to reproduce it since it was first observed? Thank you for reporting.

 

will keep track.

 

looks like it's leaking on loading to overworld

1.6 at play button
3.4 after loading to overworld (friends mode)
3.5 entered necropilis barrens 3:43 pm
3.6 left at 3:52
4.2 on overworld
4.0 reentered the barrens (not on purpose, see bug here)
4.3 on overworld 3:57
4.2 entered whiteguard
4.2 before leaving whiteguard at 4:26
4.5 on overworld

 

Bug submitted. Thanks!

 

Hi Attenwood. I'm seeing a lot of the same. Use to be I would blame it partially on my internet connection and the old connection was around 125 msec delay. But the new connection is seriously faster and delay is around 20msec.
But even more telling is the fact that when I close the program through the options the screen locks up for 3:32 minutes and ties up my computer for a few minutes after that. Only game that causes that is SOTA. That's not for certain SOTA's issue but seems like a good indicator.

 

I have to agree with Alley Oop, I too have had similar issues with the game running smooth until after a few 20 minutes of playing there begins to be a slight pause every so 30 seconds checking the process usage on my machine, I have a good 20Gb of memory total after an even re freshen restart of machine the game still sucks all the memory and doesn't stop the lagging. I've noticed this prevalent in soltown as I can never get most NPC's to even chat with me due to this issue. This happens every game duration since launch for me anyways. Hope it is something that can be fixed, USA time zone windows 7 20Gb top Gen Nvidia card. Not sure how to check in game usage or FPS counter so I can't really tell if certain areas are causing it, but it's happening frequently.
