#[SPZ2-1689] Painters sometimes don't paint

Painters are constantly skipping shapez and sending the gray one through. I probably just didn't notice until I started using the Packers because now the grays are clogging everything up.

#

I can't catch them doing it, so it may only be when my camera is far away

This problem has not returned in a later play session

Hi Schlenkat, thanks for the report. I have been running a very similar setup with packers for QA testing and I have not noticed it.
Did you work on other platforms off screen for a while and then returned to check and see the packers stuck?
I had some issues during building the setup that some uncolored went through as I replaced connection belts, but i have never seen uncolored shapes come out of the painter.
I will keep an eye on this and try reproducing it. Thanks!

I have had this happen to me as well, as far as I can tell it is extremely rare

When it did happen to me, it happened several times across different islands. Only for that play session so far

wanted to add to the photo evidence gallery, for what it's worth I play at a very low fps so that might have something to do with it

Interesting, thanks! May be a good point about the settings not working on all options smooth.
Generally the "simulation" and what is calculated off screen is still in "alpha" and needs work.

this one is pretty bad, it needs to be adressed - it's probably an issue with how the painter works at low UPS
