This patch adds options to reduce the game's CPU useage.
Up until now the game was set to use v-sync, which in many cases caused the game to use more CPU than it really needs to. With this update you can choose between:
- 60 FPS
- 30 FPS
- v-sync
The new default is 60 FPS. If you were happy with how it ran originally, you can switch back to v-sync.
Additionally an option has been added to toggle off the "nighttime" effect, which is a fairly heavy piece of code. This might also be useful for players who simply prefer the bright day-time colors at all time.
Toggling off nighttime will further reduce CPU useage and will not affect the progression of time. In the background, the game will still think it is nighttime, and seasons will still come and go.
Both settings can be found to the right of the options menu, see image below.
Thanks for all your positivity, feedback and patience! I will continue to improve and add onto the game. Next I will work on adding some QoL based on player feedback!
