Description Peter Fok 2025-04-04 19:20:07 UTC

Basically in the digital electricity game, if it gets too laggy then the ABD converter doesn't detect changes until a few seconds later or not at all I tried it on a fast and slow computer and it happens the same. I was messing around and making a counter that goes to 10000 and it had like 30 wires per digit and it was super laggy and when it counted to 100 it didn't sometimes and when I did a test it would change 10 seconds after it was supposed to even though nothing was changing and I'm pretty sure it's not my programming skills.

so I optimized my counter and it still misses it sometimes and its inconsistent so I know its not my coding skills

Comment 2 Peter Fok 2025-04-04 20:05:15 UTC

I got to 9999 like a few times and i think it can't count to 10000 even with the optimized method

hi, thank you for the report.

The activity is not made to be this heavily targeted. We can try to optimise it a bit but for sure we won't plan to have the most optimized version.
Do you have a screenshot or a simple way to reproduce it so it is easier to see where we take time and see if there is a quick possibility to improve it?

Thanks!
