Turn processing extremely slow

Submitted by Thunderhit on Sun, 2007-10-21 08:24. Space Empires V General

Started a new game with 1.58 and BM 1.10 with FQM Beta 11 or what the latest was.
The game takes ages for player 9, the green is there for a long time... but its not only him..

SEV only uses max. 55%, thats what the task manager is telling me.. is that called multithreading? Yes, I set it to TRUE in settings.txt!
The whole turn process took 13 MINUTES!! I'm at game date 2410.1.

So... is this normal? Because it makes the game unplayable! Are there any hidden options in some files to make it faster?

edit: I have in this game at least 50 systems. Don't think thats too much for the game to handle...

Uh, there was a way when the AI was at its move in turn processing, the player could play that empire, right? But I cant remember how that was done.

I don't think multithreading is officially supported yet.

At any rate, using Simultaneous Movement mode gives a substantial boost to turn processing times. I agree though, they really need alot of optimizing if the game is to be playable for big single-player games.
