![]() ![]() Gnomes using this elevator, if it is built properly, can hit one spot on any floor and instantly be able to go to any other floor! It's a wonder for your floor plan, especially on TINY maps. Put a torch next to them every 5 floors to keep them lit (the light shines THROUGH it like glass so no worries) to keep monsters from showing up on it. start building scaffolds up through the rock. *Deep mining level advice: When you dig your stairs down to the mine, keep them in the same relative 'spot' in the map, so the gnomes can get down quickly without walking ALL OVER THE PLACE. It's really hard to get this to lag unless you have LOTS of stuck monsters (beetles, mants that can't get to you, or a large discovered but not lit up CAVE). Even with a normal map on it, with LOTS of water moving around, it's still playable and decent. Not happy with my computer, I built an entire new one with an i7 4790k. My OpenTTD (another game) did speed up quite a bit - but that was multicore. lackluster (though, in other games and in the OS itself, performance was much better). I upgraded to an AMD FX 6300 from an Athlon II, and improvement (for Gnomoria) was. You DO NOT have to spend a bundle though, if you just play casual games like this one, a PENTIUM ANNIVERSARY EDITION (see link below) is like 70 U$D. This (either) cpu is MORE THAN TWICE the speed of the AMD FX 4.2ghz. Medium and small maps run like a dream (100fps!). Use of mants is fine, beetles are okay if you find them in time.ĭo not have to build while paused - ever. If you're going for 40-45 gnomes, you should be fine. Humongous maps are fine on peaceful, but that's pushing it if you want a MONSTER kingdom. Only lag is when enemy is spotted (from having 50-60 gnomes enlisted in the military). Intel Core i7 4790k/ Intel Core i5 4690k 4.0ghz = BEST cpu's to run this game with! Large maps with 60+ gnomes, Great hall 116x158圆f high located -44 in the mine. GNOMORIA is single-core and NEEDS that fpu! KEEP BEETLES OFFĪMD FX CPU's have only HALF the Floating-Point units that the comparable ATHLON II/ PHENOM / PHENOM II / OPTERON cpu's do. Don't build TALL buildings on the surface level above 5 floors. FAST CLOCKED Phenom II's may actually be BETTER than the below cpu (the FX) if you have them above 4ghz.ĪMD FX 6300 CPU 4.2ghz = small/medium maps with 50-35 gnomes, lag starts with mining down past floor 35-45. Keep beetles and mants OFF.ĭon't use furthest out zoom all the time.ĪMD PHENOM II 3.0ghz = Same as above, + 5% fps. Going over gnome amount may require you to pause while building. THIS GAME IS SINGLE CORE CURRENTLY (Multicore/SMP is planned).ĪMD ATHLON II 2.8ghz = small/medium maps with 40-30 gnomes, lag starts with mining down past floor -30. and this game is definately intel cpu territory. But these sort of games are almost impossible to design so that it can be run on a toaster with a huge map and a large army of minions. I know it sucks when a great game becomes unplayable because your fort outgrew the resources your computer has to offer you, I've been there a few times myself(As I'm using a 3-year old budget gaming laptop). ![]() Which means it'll take a lot of time from the developper to code, not something you'd want to spend your resources on when you and the playerbase generally has more interest in seeing the last few features becoming fleshed out and making the game featurecomplete. ![]() Secondly, multithreading and the other stuff that allows you to utilize all the cores of a computer to it's full extend is hard to code. Well for one, you kinda would want a gaming computer for them, if only so you can have more gnomes and enemies before your computer starts complaining with massive lag and whirring fans. Navorskatie, what you describe is exactly what i do w/Don't Starve or Minecraft.If it bogs down, restart.So that's what I'll do if i get back into Gnomoria (plus turn off Beatles!) Originally posted by Hackey McNoobster™:chaotix, I guess I see what you mean, but if these retro beancounter games are so complicated, why aren't they made to use a computer's full ability? Or is it just that you need a gaming computer to play this type of game very long.? I know laptops aren't good for games, but still. ![]()
