4.5.1 from steam, Linux mint
When running my game, i get seemingly random stutters throughout. Exporting it didn’t help, sicne they also appear there. I tried adding a pooling system for my game objects, but that didn’t help either.
Video showing the problem The console in the video detects when a stutter appears. Any idea what could be causing this?
Hi,
no idea, downloaded the project, no issue here.
Sometimes the console is printing “Possible stutter detected” but nothing visible.
I tested it until Lvl 11.
btw.: where the stutter detection comes from?
Maybe its an issue with your system.
I tested on Windows with Godot 4.4.1
Had a read here already?
Last but not least i would change the velocity calculation to this, feels more responsive, but maybe its just my personal taste. (raised the speed to 500)
velocity = distance * speed
Did you take a look at the Profiler or Monitors?
The monitors don’t seem to detect anything, but the frame time Profiler does. Every blue downward spike is one of these stutters. But I don’t really know what to make of that
It shouldn’t be a problem on my system because i tried the same project on a completely different computer running windows 11 and the stutters were still happening. The stutter detection is from the test.gd script, i threw it together fast to try and fix the bug. Also tried it on your version (4.4.1), didn’t help
Have you tried switching from Forward+ to Compatibility mode? I was having a similar problem with a project and that fixed it for me. I spent a lot of time trying various optimizations and turning parts of the game off. Switching to Compatibility was the only thing that worked.
So compatibility removes the stutters when moving the window, and just generally feels smoother. The stutters are definitely more rare, but some still appear sometimes. But i think that’s that best solution right now. I won’t mark it as solved yet, maybe someone has another helpful tip
