Title: SEXP right click menu hang or not responding
Post by: Cygnus x on January 13, 2015, 01:28:47 am
I've experienced some sort of lag in the sexp menus of the ship- and event editors. When right-clicking on the name, operator or argument, the editor needs about 10 seconds until i get the menu tree.
In some cases i got "no response" and no menu. But the editor isn't crashing entirely. I've tried out the retail fred2.exe and fred2_open_3_7_1_20141223_r11204.exe + mediavps_2014.
Computer: win7, i5-2500 k @ 3.3 ghz, 8 gb ram.
Does some know a solution to bring back an instant reaction of the right click menu?
Things i've done:
- Set priority to realtime in the taskmanager: nothing
- Set affinity to one cpu (cpu 0) in the taskmanager: total editor crash

Do you only get this with your mission? Or is it something that happens with even an empty mission + 1 event? Does this only happen when you are running a mod or does it happen with only retail FS2?

I'm not seeing this behaviour myself so I don't know if it's just something you're getting or if my PC is just fast enough to avoid it.

Retail fred2.exe and fred2_open_3_7_1_20141223_r11204, both the same. A new mission + 1 event and the menu is hanging 10 sec.
I placed 23 GTD Orion in the retail fred2-mission and the Editor crashed. In the fred2_open..., i placed 150 GTD Orion and i could place more.
