| Summary | 0013354: FPS death during siege on a new CPU (Ryzen 7 9800X3D) | ||||
| Description | I was attacked by goblins. At the beginning, the FPS were stable. I built a couple of walls. Then, suddenly, FPS dropped to 5 making the game unplayable, as even the UI is laggy. Exterminating ogres and trolls doesn't help. Exterminating goblins helps. I'm assuming pathfinding issues. It's laggy even if I open the gate for the goblins. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. Load the provided save. 2. Unpause the game. 3. You get FPS death. | ||||
| Additional Information | I didn't have such issues before, except one time under different siege, but back then it unclogged itself after invaders destroyed trade depot (or other buildings/constructions). | ||||

I believe this bug is directly related to battering rams. I have had it happen multiple times, If I use DFhack to exterminate the four goblins carrying the battering ram the problem is immediatly fixed. I have uploaded a save at "https://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=17652" in which this bug is ongoing. You can also teleport the 4 battering ram goblins and the FPS will temporarily return, they will however walk back to it and the game will struggle once more. Also using an AMD CPU "Ryzen 9 7950x3d". This particular save point has 3 battering rams entering the map, one at the Northwest and two true North, upon teleporting or exterminating these 12 goblins the siege runs normally. I'm not sure if it is proper edicate to attach these to an existing bug report or if I should make a new one, for the purpose of reducing clutter I am starting by attaching it here. |
