Regarding Launch Issues

"Hey everyone, I am working on a fix for the client-side FPS stutter that's going on. It's related to foliage, and every time a plant is eaten, picked up , or destroyed, it's causing a stutter on every computer (including the server, which is likely causing lag spikes as well). I'm hoping to get a hotfix for this out later tonight.

The FPS stutter is happening because every time a plant is eaten, the game must re-compute the collision bounds for the entire 'Instanced Foliage Actor' on the map, which is resulting in a hefty CPU spike due to the sheer volume of foliage on Ancestral_Plains.

The servers are also having a very difficult time when exceeding 40-50 players. We'd recommend not having servers larger than 50 players at this time, as it is going to result in a very unstable gameplay experience.

Vipe and I are working to improve the worst offenders in these regards!" -Predatoria

Thank you guys so much for your patience and support.
