None, do people really have performance issues in 4.3? 100 years in the fastest speed still runs at like 1 month per second for me.

yeah so theres this thing called MODS. which greatly affect performance

The fix to that is less mods. Not more.

Genuinely curious what mods you are using that is causing such ginormous lag that you need anti-lag mods?

I play heavily modded too...

As I said in my R5 comment, I have a lot of mods.

I do too. What mod(s) do you use that tank your performance? I doubt any other mod would fix mod-specific lag anyhow since they only change vanilla scripts.

The game does not run 1 second a month at 2300 for you man, especially not modded

It does but maybe I'm not using the same mods y'all are. I'm primarily playing with Gigastructures + ACOT. 600 star galaxy, 9 AI empires (down to around 4 at year 100 depending on purifiers and midgame crisis), Grand Admiral AI. I play with storms, cutholoid, and voidworms off but I doubt they cause *that* much lag.

I checked my most recent playthrough and I'm at 2303 and it takes ~2 and a bit seconds for a whole month, 5 empires. It's a lot better than before the pop rework. One per year I will stutter for maybe half a second (starting in the very late game), I assume the game or perhaps Gigastructures is doing some one-per-year calculations in the background.

EDIT: For the disbelievers: https://imgur.com/a/eoZes7d. See one_year output below as this dude sheepishly edited their comment to try and "gotcha" me after I posted the gifs.

It does not. The best cpu in the world for stellaris can JUST manage to run months at roughly 1 second a month at game start it does not even come close to doing that in mid game though, even in vanilla

There's actually 0% chance you're doing it vanilla or modded. ESPECIALLY with giga and acot, both of which has terrible performance compared to vanilla.

Please stop making shit up about performance :)

Though feel free to provide evidence for this by running the one_year command in the console and provide a save file

Here are two gifs, one of a fresh save and one from my late-game save. As you can see in the early game the game runs several - SEVERAL - months per second for me. In the late game it's a bit less than 1 month per second. Late-game FPS is about 5 lower than early game.

Man, I should buy some lottery tickets with that 0% chance huh? Also should probably sell my CPU, it's apparently 5x better than the world's best CPU? Damn son might even make me a millionaire!

EDIT: Since they so sheepishly edited their comment after I posted this to move the goalpost, here is one_year output:

As you can see, several months per second in the early game, and a bit lower than one month per second in the late game.

The 9800X3D cannot even come close to 15 seconds a year on 2300 in vanilla. Can you provide a save file here?

Because whatever you have going on is extremely unusual. And it am really curious on testing it

Also I didn't Edit my comment after you replied, i edited it 30 seconds after i made the comment

Also what cpu do you have? And do you perhaps use Linux?
