Game really doesn't like something that I have done.

Game lags up and becomes unplayable. People stand around with goods in hand not doing their jobs when it is playable. Legit having a Starvation cause the baker folks are just standing in the Haybarn with wheat and not processing it.

I have enclosed the whole town in walls, I have gates open so they can go in and out, but the game really doesn't like something.

Note, Would love it if there was a way to designate what goes into what storage. Miner mine faster than the Mason converts meaning that you will fill your stone storage with raw stone faster.

Hi, sorry you're having trouble! Are you on the latest version (v1.2)? The older versions have some problems with the pathfinding which should be fixed. If you are on v1.2, I'll see what I can do to find the problem. As a side-note, you can assign multiple people to one mason/bakery. Hope that helped!

I had just paidfor and downloaded the game around an hour before I posted, so unless you updated between the purchase and post. Yeah its the most recent version.

Already have like 5 people working one Mill. So that wasn't the problem. It was liturally a case where dispite the Mill being 2 tiles away from the Hayshed, the people were standing there lost.

As for the Masonary/Miner problem, again it was a case of dispite there being a spot opened by the Mason taking the raw rock from the Storage, they would not add the Cut Rock into the same slot they had just removed, Even with no miners working against them. Still to say that Mining is VERY fast considering.

Just uploaded v1.3. It fixes a freeze involving antelopes, makes the game run faster and improves the pathfinding. Hope that fixes the lag.

The stonemason might have not been picking up stones because they were reserved by builders on their way to pick them up. As for the windmill, I'm not sure what the problem might be. The new patch does improve pathfinding again so might just fix the issue. Would help if you could send your savefile so I could have a look at what's happening!

Edit: 1.3.1 also optimizes roads: if you had a lot of those, this new build will probably make the game a lot faster!

I get the same problem as this fella its either i explore something with a character or something like that. I am on the v1.2 version and i get this problem :/ Overall i enjoyed the game still so yee. I just wanted to keep playin and i was being held up by lag that makes the game unplayable.

Only if i had mac to fix the problem :(

Sorry you're having trouble, will do my best to fix it! A few more questions: are you on OSX? There's a problem there because of which I can't do a certain optimization which might be causing the problem. Been trying to find a way to do this anyways.

It would also help if you could send me your savefile so I can see what's going on. On Windows, the game is saved under C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\pyramid2. On OSX: ~Library/Application Support/pyramid2. Just the save in question is enough. Thanks!

Edit: just uploaded v1.3. It fixes a freeze involving antelopes, makes the game run faster and improves the pathfinding.

Here is a google drive link and if you dont trust the link i can send the contents of it but it looks a gigantic text file.

Perfect, thanks!

Think I've found the issue: your world has a lot of roads, which make it harder for the pathfinding to predict the cost of a certain path, slowing it down quite a lot.

I've uploaded version 1.3.1, which makes antelopes and skeletons ignore roads in pathfinding, optimizes it for people (by giving roads less priority), and optimizes the drawing code for roads. The save now runs just fine on my machine. Hope it will run better for you now as well.

Thanks bruh it did help. however another problem has occoured. After setting up my next farm the game started to slow down alot. I noticed frame drops when the villagers were a calculating a path too. anyway I'll send you file like last time I have made considerably more paths this time too so be exited!

Edit: I loaded it and it was fine... for a few seconds. wait a couple secs and you will see what I mean

Also do you have a discord or something where i can submit bugs or problems instead of putting them on the itch page?
