game is starting to get slow

[spacy]

i have 90 full trains now,
its 1974, im only using ttd alter with some industries,

i play with the 1.9v patch at my w2k pc
but the game is slowing down,
especially when i open the trainslist,

with taskmanager it show ttd is taking 99% cpu cycles,
but normally my cpu is fast enough for all kinds of stuff
and i didnt notice the slowing down of the game before

dont start flaming but im still very happy with my P2 350mhz, 256mb ram
i cant imagine why this game is taking so much cpu time

hmm well it's offcourse a whole happening all those little bits and bytes driving around in your virtual world.. even my PC 1800MHZ.. has some trouble.. and i dont have so much yet.. i'm now in 1973.. but sometimes it's laggy.. but maybe it's the just the crack.. i think because before i had the crack or XP i never had problems with TTDLX

if you have a large "morevehicles" setting (more than 3 or 4), the game will get very slow. You could try reducing it with "reducedsave", but be careful and read the manual, or you'll lose some trains.

Can it help to reduce some stuff like 'activities in the town' ?

i guess its indeed the number of vehicles in the game,
ill put them to 40 x 850, im gonna try to lower it without loosing some trains.

stuff like disabling animations, disabling of showing speed, disable high detail arent working to get the game fast again

morevehicles 40? That's way more than you need! Try a lower value, like 3 or 4.
