Performance Improvements

Fixing bugs and optimizing code

REQUIRES UnityToolkit

A collection of performance improvements I'm working on. I will update and include other fixes and improvements I make as I optimize things.

This has not been tested with Fika and no support will be offered to Fika users. Especially those found trying to bypass feature restrictions.

Issues? Open one here

Adds:

• AI limiter based on range, fully configurable in the F12 menu. (Disabled if Fika or Questing Bots is present)
• Dynamic optic resolution based on the active scaling mode in the EFT graphics settings. If DLSS is the mode chosen in the EFT graphic settings then its the mode the mod will use to scale the resolution when scoped in. This should vastly improve fps when using scopes. THE MODE SELECTED IN THE MOD MUST MATCH YOUR EFT GRAPHIC SETTINGS OR A FLICKER WILL HAPPEN. I CAN DO NOTHING ABOUT THIS.
  
• Experimental patches. These range from threading optimizations to logic optimizations. Can be disabled in the F12 menu.
• New Graphics Settings in the EFT Graphics settings page.

Fixes:

• The stutter on bot death (one of the most egregious issues with the 3.10 client)

Todo:

• Attempt to thread path finding logic, this eats about 6-12ms per call to each method and can be potentially multi-threaded.
• Attempt to thread bot spawning, this should address stutters on bot spawn.
• Random fixes of broken code I come across while doing other things.

Installation:

If you wish to support my work you can buy me a coffee!

Performance Improvements 0.1.1

- Adds bot distance limiter that will disable bots based on distance, this fixes bsg's AI limiter to behave how the AI limit mod does. Previously it would base its range off of any active bot near it, causing it to almost never trigger. (nice)
- Able to be enabled or disabled on the fly (F12 menu)
- You can choose to only disable PMC's, Scavs, or Bosses (F12 menu).
- Distances are configurable for each map (F12 menu)

NOTE: if an inactive bot is shot by an active one or yourself, it will become…

NOTE: if an inactive bot is shot by an active one or yourself, it will become active and have a 30 second cool down before able to be disabled again.

Performance Improvements 0.1.2

- Adds dynamic resolution scope options based on super sampling, dlss, fsr2, or fsr3 modes. The mode used in mod settings is based on the mode selected in the EFT graphic settings. If DLSS is on, the DLSS mode will be used, etc. This should vastly improve fps when scoped in with optics.
- Fixes bots potentially not becoming awake again when disabling the bot limiter

Performance Improvements 0.1.3

- Clamps min and max super sampling option to 1% and 99% respectfully (Prevents crash by a divide by zero error OOPS)
- Bot limiter will become unavailable if either Fika or Questing bots are present as they are not compatible and have their own solutions. All other features will remain enabled.
- Bot limiter will now check the distance to enable first and return out if it enabled a bot.
- Lays the foundation for a future updates, adds code that is disabled for now as I wanted to get these bugs…

- Lays the foundation for a future updates, adds code that is disabled for now as I wanted to get these bugs fixed. This is the groundwork for a newer easier to maintain scene cleaner (declutterer) yes I'm aware declutterer is broken, its being rewritten in this mod and then it will become deprecated.

Performance Improvements 0.1.4

- Fixes a flicker when using the scaling options. NOTE: If your setting does not match your in game setting it will flicker regardless. This is changing rendering settings at the engine/driver level and I can do nothing about it. From my testing with all the scaling options FSR3 seems to perform the best.
- Adds Experimental patches. Disabled by default. Requires a restart to enable or disable. These range from threading optimizations to logic optimizations.

- Adds Experimental patches. Disabled by default. Requires a restart to enable or disable. These range from threading optimizations to logic optimizations.

- Threads a method responsible for updating enemy information when a bot is hit. (Experimental can be disabled(requires restart))

- Bot group updates will happen every other frame (Experimental can be disabled(requires restart))

- These options have been briefly tested with SAIN and seemed to have cause no issues. They have not been tested with Fika.

Performance Improvements 0.2.0

- Adds new options to the EFT graphics menu (No F12 menu😄)
- Shadow settings have tool-tips to explain what they do. These are taken directly from their documentation.
- Unknown if these will have any drastic affect for anyone, but added nonetheless.

0.60x
- New Shadow texture resolution setting (defaulted: Medium);
Very high

Performance Improvements 0.2.1

- Adds a config option to limit the amount of max sleeping bots.
- When enabled, bots will be disabled from furthest to closest until it reaches its target
- Added new option to disable limiting sniper scavs
- Adds bot culling for disabled bots (Can be disabled). I did not cull their equipment, this was intentional. If you see floating equipment walking around it means shit is busted and you should let me know

Performance Improvements 0.2.2

Small bug fix update

- Fixes an edge case path issue if the plugin is placed inside of a sub folder of plugins
- Fixes dead bots not being able to be looted
- Reworked the sleep by count option, it is now max active bots instead of max sleeping bots to make more sense
- Features that need to be disabled for Fika are now properly disabled

Additional note: I noticed while working on this update that SAIN disables the standby layer of bots near active ones. So if your targets are not being hit, this is…

Additional note: I noticed while working on this update that SAIN disables the standby layer of bots near active ones. So if your targets are not being hit, this is likely the cause. No I wont bypass it.
