Fixes the game running slower with smooth frames on some PCs.

You need your own copy of the game. The downloads contain no game data. Updating: v0.1.4 and
newer update themselves at start (Update now); older versions: unpack over the old folder, your
saves, settings and data pack stay.

Fixed

  • With smooth frames on (new in v0.1.7), the game could run slower than normal on some PCs, and
    even slower with the speed-up (F3). Thanks to the player who reported it on Discord.
    Why: each game frame waited for the graphics card to finish drawing it, and the card was also
    busy drawing the in-between pictures for every monitor refresh. When the card could not do both
    in time, game frames came late and the game time slowed down. The game now hands its work to
    the graphics card without waiting for it, as before smooth frames.
  • Smooth frames now pause while the speed-up is on. At those speeds the game already draws about
    as many frames as the monitor shows, so blending added nothing and only cost graphics card
    time. They come back when you press F3 again.
