reported Metronomic stutter caused by Normandy civilian traffic

[Rene Coulon]

I have been trying to track down the cause of an irritating stutter, in my large missions. The stutter is metronomic...like a pulse. Reducing the complexity and number of units helped...with my system 1500 +_ total units is the limit for me. The cause of the Stutter would appear to be the CIVIL TRAFFIC. The moment my system gets loaded...civil traffic causes horrible stuttering. So...on all missions its now OFF...and they smooth as silk.

It's not obvious from your post, but are you using MOOSE or MIST or just using your own scripts or purely the mission editor with yak-40's?

Are you using any mods?

I think civil traffic in this case means the road traffic.

It's very vague; you could read anything into it - that's why I was hoping for clarity.

I do have a MODS folder...but its not the issue, neither is any form of scripting etc,

the Civil Traffic...is just the road traffic...directly from the mission editor. Turning it OFF really seems to smooth out my system.

Okay, that's clearer. Thanks.

@Rene Coulon As discussed in PM, I checked all terrains: I found that Normandy has this issue with civilian traffic. I could not replicate the issue with other terrains.

It's now reported as a Normandy terrain issue.

Thanks for testing that @Flappie - I was very worried about my missions then! I avoid WW2 so I'm safe. Good catch.

Also dont overlook the Normandy 2 Traffic includes Trains.    Note - The MT Version has the issue of the Train wheels and animations not working this maybe causing a stuttering problem if the sim is having a problem trying to render them. Also the trains still need adjusting to the correct rail height.

I think thats also a very valid point...the Trains issue is now really in need of attention, and in Normandy its Terrible
