Build: 1.7 3612 (Experimental) Mode: Creative (presumed survival also) Mode: Single Player Reproducibility: Always Severity: Minor, possibly major Type: Water Summary: Aiming a drill or survival tool at the terrain on a shoreline can result in a massive FPS drop. Description: Not quite sure what's causing this, but something about the projection of the blue digging marker on a drill or survival tool causes a massive FPS drop if you are standing in and looking at a temperate shoreline. This does not always occur, and oddly in the case I noted only occurs when facing south but not north. My graphics settings are on high running on an RTX 3080 and at times it can grind to only a few FPS (see video). Changing the water quality settings to low fixes it, but on medium and high it manifests. Steps to Reproduce: 1) Load attached savefile. It is a new creative session on the temperate planet. You should be standing at a shoreline. 2) Look around your current location without any tool equipped, especially at your feet facing south. The FPS will be fine. 3) Now equip either the drill or the resource mode of the survival tool and repeat the process. Your FPS should tank at certain points. 4) Change water quality setting to low and repeat. The FPS will be fine. Screenshots, Crash Logs, any other Relevant Information or Download links:
I'll try to remember to do that in the future when I log performance issues. In this case the numbers don't matter, it goes from playable to wtf pretty obviously.
