Printer lag.

[Khorde]

Everytime I use the printer on a brick the game lags for only me and if I use the printer too much I have a never ending spray can (like when I click the spraying stops) This has probably been said before but still. Help me.

your computer sucks and takes ages to load the images.

When I use the printer for the first time, it lags, but after that it won't. Guess it looks for images or something the first time.

My computer's pretty fast, and It happens on my friend's blockland too and he has a Faaaaaaaast computer.

How fast?

Mine is 2 gig RAM, 2.2 GHz processor (AMD Athlon 64 3500+, beeeyoooootch). It still lags when firing printer for first time.

It's just digging through the prints and finding them all and loading them.

Always goes slow the first time. Sometimes goes slow on the later ones. If your spray can keeps firing, then you've gotten a bug where the game thinks your mouse button is held down when it's not. I noticed that the speed of the computer tends to be a bit irrelevant when loading the images, so blargh at that.

Does it only do it the first time for you? If not, then how long does the lag last?

CPU and GPU would be pretty irrelevant for this.  RAM might be a factor, but hard drive read speed is probably the major player.  I have a 10,000 RPM hard drive and 2GB of Corsair XMS Pro Series RAM, so it all happens pretty quickly for me.  You can simulate this event by typing the following into the console:

Code: [Select]

setModPaths(getModPaths());

It always lags for a little while when it sets up the print images.

Is that good , because my friends has AMD Athlon 64 6500+ or something like that .
