No difference, the weird part is if I open a new game, sit there on the spam me with hints chat dialogue until I begin, the crabs all walk around fine, I can then ask for another tip, it drops again bad when it closes and opens a new one, but sitting there again, in a few seconds the crabs walk around smooth and fine again, so I assume something is functioning when the game isnt paused in a menu/chat dialogue thats slowing it down to a crawl rapidly.

Also kyyyte said a GTX 1060 which is a Nvidia card so its unlikely to be a amd/ati graphics card issue.

Ahh you're right! My mistake about Kyyyte. Leave it with me and hopefully I'll have an update for you all soon.

Could you try one more thing if that's okay/possible?

I know it's difficult with the FPS issues but would you be able to try and leave the MUTINY ISLAND REGION?

You can leave the region a few ways but the simplest is either stealing a raft in the ocean or crafting one using Wood, Cotton and Sturdy Rope. There's also a stationary raft which you can use SOUTH-WEST of MUTINY ISLAND. Jumping off a Temporary Raft will make them sink so keep that in mind. Grab the RAFT pictured below and leave the map edges to be taken to another area. If possible, try and head EAST or SOUTH. WEST will more than likely get you killed as it's the more dangerous route.

In the meantime ANYONE who encounters this issue please continue to post your details in this thread.

I dropped the screen res so I could just about stutter around to test this but sadly no improvement when leaving that region, tried S/E/N/NN regions from the start, same issue in all regions and the wierd open a menu makes the fps back to normal until closed again.

I'm looking at the itch build as we speak and am unable to replicate the issue as of yet. I'll keep posting suggestions though in the hope that one of these things may correct whatever issue is occurring.

Do you have Vsync enabled inside your Graphics Card Dashboard/Settings? If so, could you try disabling it? I noticed that having it enabled drops the FPS noticeably for me.

I think I may have figured out a solution. I will upload the updated build in the next hour. Please let me know if this fixes or even improves the situation for you.
