I am using r7567 in debug mode. During a game: If i open the stock inventory (shortcut "i") and just move the mouse pointer over the icons the shadow of trees will flicker (gets bright for a short time). On the bottom left corner is a little area where the fog of war get lifted for a short time. After i have moved the mouse over all wares the flickering does not appear anymore. Then i change to workers tab and the flickering begins again while moving the mouse until i moved over all items. In Editor: Mostly while clicking the buttons "decrease/increaes" f.e. the in height tools or noise height tool. Depending on the already placed objects on the map the flickering get more less noticed. Some output from the terminal: [...] selected language: en No corresponding locale found - trying to set it via LANGUAGE=en, LANG=en Graphics: Try to set Videomode 1680x1050 Graphics: OpenGL: Version "3.0 Mesa 11.0.3" Graphics: OpenGL: Double buffering enabled Graphics: OpenGL: Max texture size: 16384 ** GRAPHICS REPORT VIDEO DRIVER x11 pixel fmt 370546692 size 1680 1050 END GRAPHICS REPORT ** Loading the world took 663ms Font file not found. Falling back to serif: serif Could not find file: could not find file or directory: i18n/fonts/serif Loading barbarians took 990ms. Loading empire took 1060ms. Loading atlanteans took 733ms. My computer isn't really up to date (Athlon X2 dual core 5200+), but the game runs with an average fps of 30. Could someone confirm this? Or should i update my computer Edited: 2015-10-25, 10:03 UTC+1.0 Top Quote

If I mouse over the same ware again, no flicker. I guess what happens is that a graphics thingamagog gets updated and redrawn. Could you please open a bug report? Or maybe it is because my computer is even older than yours Busy indexing nil values Top Quote
