Interface heaviness ?

[stross]

Hi everyone,

I experience lags, and lack of reactivity with interface in gaia project. I play on my smartphone, but it's not that old, Samsung s7. I play with Firefox.

I noticed that the more the map is full, the slower it is.

Anyone else noticed that ? Any hints to fix it or is it inherent to the way the interface is designed ? Maybe it's optimized for another browser ?

Thanks again for the hard work the devs do 🙂

Looking at the markup it seems every "object" is redefined upon use. Like every mine has its own geometry defined over and over. I think performance could be improved if they relied more on:

so that shapes can be reused. Its just a guess so, but I think its a good one.

Nice ! Indeed it could probably reduce load.
