This is kind of odd, but I'm mechlabbing my NightStar 9P...

When I have the "weapons" tab open (and viewing in the expanded Mechlab layout), every time I change the armor, weapons, or equipment on my mech, the weapons tab briefly collapses and only shows "AMS" for a tiny fraction of a second, then expands back out to what it should be.
It's odd; when the tab briefly collapses and only shows "AMS" the term flashes in a white font (not black).

I can effectively kill my frame rate by simply changing armor because every single point of armor I click on causes this brief menu glitch, and the time really stacks up.

I have just 2 AC/20's equipped, so when I am in the ballistics section and I change my armor value by a point, the AC/20 ammo collapses into just an unpopulated section called "Ballistic" and it, too, flashes white briefly.

When I have the Equipment section open and I change my armor or equipment in my Mech, the entire section collapses to just "Miscellaneous" and that flashes white. This whole collapse-and-return to normal routine only lasts, like 1/4 a second. It's like some kind of update/check related bug.

So I went to SELECT MECH to change Mechs and see if I can reproduce it with another mech.. then I saw the same ting happen to my list of Chassis. Every time I change from Light to Medium to Assault, etc., the list of chassis briefly collapses and flashes, then expands back out.

When it happens, my FPS tanks and I hear my computer churning hard.

Anyone else seeing anything like this?


system is DirectX 12, GTX560, i5-333 running game in DX11. (I dunno if that's relevant.)

Can confirm, I7 and amd graphics though, running DX11.

Seeing the same thing here. I would presume this is related to the fix that "solved" the sticky tooltips in the mechlab.

That was my guess too. Spaghetti code says hello.
