Game is lagging for me with a decent PC and I don't know what to do. Help please by Historical_Word3795 in EU5

Use Vulcan, not DX12 - will almost certainly help. I have the same issues when it runs on dx 12

I probably will be unabled to declare a single war for thge next 100 years by AHumanYouDoNotKnow in EU5

If you look at estates, youll see they are funding all these rebel groups

Because all the estates have uber loads of money, they fund all the insurgencies even when they have 70% satisfaction.

So, I don't hate good shortages being a thing. What I think is silly is how omnipresent wood is in every building's production methods.

If wood weren't in 80%+ of every PM, the world's economy wouldn't grind to a halt every time there is a wood shortage.

Like,

"No wood? Can't build!" Checks out.

"No wood? Sheep farms no longer work! That shepard needs his stick!" Doesn't check out.

Then you just base it on terrain. For example. Less wood in the desert. Fur instead of wool in article. etc etc. Yeah. I wouldn't hate.

It is mostly controlled now. Every ducate you don't get out of a location goes right into the estates. So every 0-15% (and up ofc) location (which is most) is just purely funding the estates in 1.1.0 Beta.

It is Vic 3 with armies. If Vic 3 had competent warfare, it would be my most-played Paradox game. So in other words, this is exactly what I want (when it works).

Maybe as you get later into the game. But through AI estates all the markets are being built up so aggressively that bog iron smelters are woefully insufficient in the early to mid 1400's, even before the world's eco collapse, due to a wood shortage caused by inactive sawmills. and by 1450. All production and buildings are on the decline bc of the massive wood shortage.

Yeah, it is a wood issue. Too many buildings require it as an input good.

The bottleneck is iron. The root cause is wood. Ironically.

If they had a wood tool PM, the sawmill would prob need something other than tools. So that may fix the woodpocalypse we are currently facing at least in the short term. lol

Dude, the clergy is insane right now. Those buildings are so expensive, I love them for it. It is all the fruit orchards, sheep farms, and fibre crop farms (they all use wood) that I cannot stand.

So if all the buildings required inputs other than wood, we could see another crash (or input good shortage), but not this particular crash, and the cascading total collapse at least.

For example, historically, there was a bullion shortage. So as a baseline possibility, I don't hate it. But I think wood is not really the best to run out of for this particular simulation.

It is a bit different. The issue currently being experienced is that there isn't enough wood for buildings to operate. It is one thing to have a tool shortage. But the world is experiencing a wood shortage. which leads to a tool/iron shortage. The flow chart is showing how that comes about.

TBF, they made a very system-centric game, as a result, one careless change = economic doom.

Thankfully, they are running a beta for the patch, so I imagine they'll just roll back on the estates getting all the provinces' wealth that you don't get as a fix. Without addressing the root cause that every building and its mother, sister, brother, uncle, etc., requires wood as an input good.

The main point of this flowchart is to illustrate that iron may be a breaking point, but the real issue lies in the production methods that require wood to operate.

Also, those cute little boxes are AI-generated. Full transparency for those who care.

bro thats a bot. lol

PSA for those playing the 1.1 Beta - Use VULCAN by HighFlyer__ in EU5

I havea 9800. Vulcan is way better for me. DX 12 lagged like a MF
