I am receiving either latency or draw stuttering with the latest few versions of Cataclysm:DDA. There is a significant delay between pressing a key while driving (faster driving increases this delay) and the input being received by the game. This was not present when I last played (several months ago.)
Instead of running smoothly, the game appears to stagger/stutter from something not being set properly? While I have video of this, tagged on Youtube as "bug" and "Cataclysm:DDA" which can be searched as a video uploaded today, "[i]Sorry, you are not allowed to post external links.[/i]" is in place for some reason.
I have yet to post on GitHub about this being a bonafide bug as it could be a misconfiguration on my part. I have attempted to adjust the settings under Options>Graphics, especially the “animations”, “Rain/SCT animations”, “Fullscreen”, “Rendering Mode” and “Scaling”. Additionally, I have attempted this without any tiles (console) with no effect.
Maybe somebody smarter than I can shed some light on what is going on in my game.
