is there a slowmode in that channel by chance?

#

also thanks for the heads up, I totally forgot 🤦

nah, only showcase posts allowed

#

btw this mod would be twice as fast if wube didn't forgot to add a return value to their API

#

They need to optimize the collector's code for sure when even Lua scripting can be an order of magnitude faster lol

Well, I think part of it is the collector's design. I suspect the collector's code is already highly optimied, but having a swarm of arms navigate to the asteroids and pick them up 1 by 1 is just inherently computationally intensive.

maybe when there are too many asteroids the collector can just turn off the chunk prediction algorithm and directly grab the asteroids or something
