[Is there a way to change a single IsoZombie's Speed?]

local zb = getWorld():getCell():getZombieList()
if zb ~= nil then
  for i = 0, zb:size() - 1 do
    zb:get(i):setSpeedMod(1.1)
   end
 end

as far as I know there is no way to set the properties of a single zombie

[ISContextMenu poor performance]

Say it takes 0.002 seconds to add a single Option.

 

if I add 300 of them, I'll spend 0.6 seconds adding options.

 

If I add 600 of them, I'll spend 1.2 seconds adding options.

 

That's what you'd expect from a for loop: it'll scale linearly based on the number of statements and number of elements it has to process. 

 

Instead of 300 menus and 300 submenus, it'd probably be better to use other gui elements that aren't created every time they're needed, like what's happening with the context menu.

 

if use other gui implemented i need to rewrite all the base code which is equivalent to make a new mod. so i hope dev consider optimizing its performance.

Hi! Why you need so many submenu?

because my more buildings mod add lot of builds, it requires a lot of submenu

[texture loading issues]

game loads 2x textures even when Double-sized Textures is turned off.

this issues caused my mod to not display the 1x texture properly, looking at the logs I found that the game was still loading the 2x texture.

Eh. People are going to have to exercise some common sense, I think. (Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.)

 

 You can’t spawn 10k zombies and expect the game to handle it. Same thing for 50k items.

 

Neither never happen during normal play.

you are right, this test is too extreme

i hope pz can standard base things of the engine, hope it can become better

At that point the game is going to crash if you even interact with them.

Though I agree it's a bug, I don't think it makes much sense to try and program out of states that should never be reached in the normal play of the game. I mean the only defense against this would likely be putting a hard cap on the number of items in the inventory, for example. It's just an entirely unreasonable amount of items to expect the game to interact with well.

i don't think set a limit is good thing, dev should try optimize it if possible

[performance issues?]

i have 49k+ nails in inventory, right click game freezes 5+ sec

this is a extreme test, but developers need to be notice this issues

no content update, just added ProjectZomboid64ShowConsole.bat modified ProjectZomboid64.bat file

i mean right click on the world tile, not right click in player inventory

update: 41.65 is the same

If the player has too many items in the inventory(i have 2000+ nails) game will freeze every time they right-click, this a known performance issue?
