[VV 2.1] Gradual slowdown (leak) in character screen.

[Mehrunes]

During gameplay the character screen, as accessed from the menu bar at the top of the screen, becomes more and more unresponsive. I routinely go into this screen and select the unemployed filter to handle new characters who want a title.

By the time a couple of hours have passed the screen is unresponsive for 5-10 seconds after opening or selecting a new filter and it continues to degrade as time passes. The character screen for filling positions like general doesn't suffer from this problem. Restarting the game temporarily eliminates the slowdown.

I, too, have encountered this. I don't have a solution, but just thought I'd put my hand up and let the Devs know this isn't a one-off occurence.

My game as well

My hand is raised as well. I have the same slow response when using the character screen. Response slows as I try to move from filter to filter. Last night, it got to the point where the game stop responding at all. I was forced to use Window's Task Manager to cancel the game.

Me too!

I also want to raise my hand as experiencing this same issue. I also had the problem with the game not responding on the character screen and I had to alt-ctrl-del out of the game.

Reported, thanks.

slow down

Same slow down as reported by others. By 100yrs in I have to save every 2yrs quit the game and reload. Failing that the menus are so slow it becomes impractical to swap out appointees. I hope you guys can fix this.

This happens to me, too.

I'm not sure whether or not it's important, but when you hover over the button for the character interface, a tool-tip box labelled "Characters" appears. I've noticed this box persists during the delay, and the character interface begins to work again when the box finally disappears.
