It has started to become noticeable how slow the game has become online, playing with 3 players and we are in the 10-12 sector. x8 feels like x2/x4 speed now.
Playing the save in single player is a huge difference and you can actually transfer stuff at x8

I have uploaded the save+mp log.

Try #1042630519369773066 and let me know if it improves things for you.

#

(though I will likely release it as a regular update soon)

Have tried with todays official release and the game has seems to have got worse.

It now stutters and gives me big fps drops while in x8 rather than the previous slow-mo effect.

Game froze for 3-5 seconds quite often when doing warps.

Uploaded fresh save+logs

It's only in multiplayer. Single player is much better FPS and speed.

#

For example playing with 3 players; 1 fighting, 1 in a blueprint and the other transferring mats. Zooming in and out is extremely laggy and gets better the further you zoom out of the map

I loaded the save in MP and am not seeing a huge difference compared to single-player. But again, I'm not sure if I'm testing properly, or if I need to do something specific after loading to cause the issues.

we are noticing a major difference between MP and what not too. last night we weren't even playing 1x - it was so slow; but running 'unstable' build; 8x runs smoothly.. so you fixed at least some of it

There is currently no difference between the stable and unstable builds, they're both 0.20.23 right now.

ill see if we can reproduce on old version again afterwards

One detail you may want to consider is upload and download speed. I have figured out that is my main problem while hosting because 15mb upload is enough at the start of the game, but once you get further, the game just cries. If I let other friends host though, I get the same framerate as if I was playing singleplayer since their connection is very good.
