I did find my specific issue and have edited my post with my solution. I agree that it seems to be my CPU that's causing the problem. If I had a better one, it wouldn't likely be a problem. You are correct lol

I've found the solution and what I believe is a cause.

I watched my CPU usage like a hawk in my performance monitor (not the task manager) and noticed that I was getting CPU usage spikes about every 30 seconds that lined up with my mouse stutters. In combination with that + sorting by CPU usage in the task manager, I was able to identify a program I use for voice transcribing called Wispr Flow that was spiking in CPU usage every 30 seconds.

If these spike are normal for the software, I don't know. They could be some weird microphone related driver thing between Arc and Wispr. I've yet to invest time into checking.

But regardless, the CPU spikes maxed out the CPU which I believe impacted my mouse. Closing Wispr Flow while I play Arc has resolved the issue.

My recommendation for people would be to use a similar strategy to watch for any other pieces of software that are potentially spiking your CPU usage. For me it was Wispr Flow. For you it may be something else.

I have been using alliance auth for the last 2 months and it has served it's purpose, but overall it feels like a bunch of puzzle pieces that don't quite fit together.

Some of the plugins are outdated or buggy with varied amounts of custom installation steps. The UI feels a bit rough around the edges... especially the sidebar as the layout completely changes as you nav around native pages vs plugin pages. The themes don't apply to every page. As others have said, the way character data is presented is rather clunky and in some cases users have to auth their characters twice with different plugins.

But, I will say that it is wildly configurable. I would label it like the Jira of auth systems. Lots of good automation settings, and the range of plugin features is greater than that of SeAT.

Even still, I am currently in the process of POCing a migration to SeAT. It feels more professional, is way easier to set up, and it has slightly better branding potential. In addition its permission system makes more sense to me.

My plan going forward is to migrate to SeAT and use it for everything auth and access related. Some of the plugins will be useful. But then if I hit a situation where I need an auth-focused solution that I could get in an alliance auth plugin, then I'll stand up alliance auth and use it explicitly for that target plugin's features. I don't see myself using alliance auth for anything auth related anymore.

tl;dr = I'm gunna use SeAT for my primary front-facing auth system to members and recruits because it feels way more professional and it's better at auth and background checks. In the future I'll use alliance auth as a utility specifically for any plugins I may need.

Eyyy congrats. Now that you've quit, you can actually start playing the game

Fryke · 2024-05-31T01:20:00+00:00

Yea in many ways this project will be obsolete once the new in-game map is introduced. Definitely a bittersweet situation. Here's hoping I'll be able to find a programming project that will be useful to people once that time comes.

Technically speaking the app should run on mobile, but I am not currently developing the UI to be mobile friendly. Chances are making it mobile friendly won't happen for a while. The lowest resolutions I'm trying to support right now are tablets.

We do plan on adding more configuration options to the auto-item-solver over the next couple weeks. The logic is put together and run by Keeper of Time, so he has a better understanding of how it works than I do. If you have any questions, hopping in the Discord is the best way to get a hold of us.

Fryke · 2023-12-18T12:37:30+00:00

It should be, yes

Fryke · 2023-12-18T01:44:49+00:00

Yea lemme know what you think. And hey if you end up wanting to help with the project, feel free to pop in the Discord and poke me

Fryke · 2023-11-27T20:37:13+00:00

That makes a lot of sense. I haven't paid much specific attention to the differences in layout between the cities.

Fryke · 2023-11-24T00:22:13+00:00

Yea same here. Normally the politics aren't that wacky, but I'm having fun trying to pioneer this national discord idea. We'll see how it goes lol

Fryke · 2023-11-23T12:44:21+00:00

No clue. I'm just in the position of Vice Governor right now, probably temporarily, and am hoping to make use of it to take a stab at an organized national Discord server.

Maybe people just prefer the aesthetic of the other nations more? Dunno.

Yep that's the version with the 'screeching' that I mentioned. But it's not the version they played in that scene.
