House Lag

So I noticed I have some pretty epic lag when I enter my new house. I come to a dead stop at least twice trying to cross the room and jumping takes a few tries. I thought maybe it was a slow connection at home, but it's doing the same thing when I'm on in other locations and on other computers. I talked to some friends in game and they admitted they've stopped visiting my house because they experience the same horrific lag.

Help?

  • Try putting your Cubimals into SDB storage and see if that helps out. Cubimals first, and if you have other SDBs leftover, add some of your other inventory laid out and about into those.

  • I have to say that I've experienced a similar thing in new houses, with considerably fewer item stacked on the floor than in old style houses. It almost seems like the furnishings are screwing with me.

    Old houses were much more tolerable.

  • For me the problem started right after I expanded the floor space. If I could I absolutely would get rid of the extra space I added.

    I only dropped extra cubimals there maybe a week ago but I got rid of them anyway, kvebob. All my SDBs are full so I removed the cubis that were not in a case from my house completely. There's definitely much improvement - I'm not stopping as often while walking :D - though I am still experiencing some speed changes and occasional stopping.

    Part of me wonders if it's the amount of furniture I have in my house? I have friends with more inventory laying around than I do, but they only have SDBs and a couple shelves in their home whereas mine is dressed to the nines.

  • I was coming to a dead stop about 1/3 of the way into my new house, about level with my bookcase door. I changed door and wallpaper styles per staff suggestion but the problem remained. Moving my door further along the wall solved the problem.

  • whew!!!  So I am not the only one experiencing super lag in the new home!
    Ever since I participated in the Cosma Testing http://www.glitch.com/forum/general/19538/ ,
    I have been getting so much lag when I go to the new home street and once inside the home it is even worst. It takes about 2 to 5 minutes for everything to appear..furniture, and items from inventory also. The game has also been crashing on me today...4 times already. What is going on?
     I will try to clear the house of some furniture and items as suggested, to see if that will help.

  • I'm seeing some laggy house issues too, but not yet as extreme as yours Jeasilver...usually if you are experiencing it, others are as well, even if they aren't reporting on it.  As an outside observer, it seems like long running flash games get kind of laggy and a server reboot helps to re-sync everything...however, it usually takes a lot (and sometimes issues not related to what you are seeing - for me, a similar previous laggy issue got resolved when they finally rebooted due to issues related to the tool vendor not accepting items for selling) for a game/server reboot to occur. Best I can recommend is to run the self-help tests from the FAQ and send those results in with a bug report. The more they know, the more they can try to do on their end.
