Map takes 5 seconds to load sometimes, after traveling for a while.

I am on SSD, my own Gportal Dedicated Server, new on 1/29. Latest patches. No Mods.
When opening the map there is sometimes a 5 second delay, or even sometimes in combat the screen just freezes.
Please provide a step-by-step process of how the bug can be reproduced. The more details you provide us with the easier it will be for us to find and fix the bug:
Just to confirm, your report is for Exiled Lands (base map), correct? If so, it has been an issue since September 2020 but it doesnât harm reporting it again, I suppose.
p.S. The issue is not present for me on Isle of Siptah.
It happens on any map, I believe, but moreso on EL than IOS due to the size of the map and the assets required. It happens any time it has to read assets (icons, maps, textures, models, etc) from the hard drive in order to load them on demand.
This might be helped if the assets were more trickle-loaded on a larger radius-from-player on a continual basis, but idk the engine specifics enough to say for certain.
Correlation does not imply causation. A tech change at IOS launch may simply have allowed a situation that the EL map is closer to exhibiting to become more visible. I suspect that if you add enough content to any map, the situation becomes easier to detect.
However, the key words here are âmayâ and âsuspectâ, so I will admit that there is no hard proof. Just intuition.
