they are trying to make 943 the most stable version and have been making updates every day so when that releases to the public then it will be a good version i am saying this because i play on 943 and havent been getting much errors at all

Good to know, errors are one thing, but does it perform better? Not in the sense of stability but in terms of does it lag/freeze less? Most of the time the problem isn't in something not working, but that it works too slowly or with a delay.

So far bugs and errors were appearing and getting solved, that's to be expected  since the thing is Work In Progress, but performance (from my experience) was consistently not good across most if not all versions.

All I want to say - "Man I wish this game would run smoother and I think, with some adjustments to code, it totally can, I mean come-on being a slide-show while I play - fine I can bear with it, I can blame my hardware for that, but freezing in a main menu before I started or loaded a save just because I hover over an option - it's a bit too much, there is totally some room to optimize something somewhere, is it trying to calculate every possibility before I even decide to press "New Game"? I'd rather wait a couple of seconds on a loading screen than see the game struggle and stagger" 

P.S.(a bit too much for "All I want to say", IK, but that's the kind of person I am)

You might be having memory issues. Is the game starting out at a manageable speed and gradually slowing down? If so, save, quit, and restart when you start to notice performance issues, as it's a memory leak issue that is common in renpy games.

I wouldn't be bothered with it if it was just that, but it has bad performance from the very start. And fiddling with options by turning everything to the bare minimum doesn't solve the issue too, I tried that.

You might be having issues with too many rnpcs for your computer to handle, try lowering the number down to half of what you initially tried and see if it makes things better. This particular game hasn't been optimized as well as others I've played here.

I would try, if I could set it any lower (below 60) and that doesn't explain why would it be freezing in the main menu before I even start to play and before the game loads/generates any rnpcs from simply hovering over different options.

If it's that slow right from the start, then it's an issue with your computer settings or hardware. Have you tried running the game right after restarting your computer to see if it's an issue with your RAM being old and leaking memory?

I could say that it was a hardware issue a year ago, but I now even have a new PC that is way better and there's still not much change. I did try restarting it, but it was of no help.
