Loading takes forever
When I start the game or load a game file, it takes up to three minutes each. It doesn't bother me, but I'm a little bit worried. What if I once reach a colony of over 300 beevers? Can I than still load the file? Maybe you could look if it's possible to make it lighter for the hardware to load a colony?

PC resources are not limited to processor and GPU, specifically I\O operations (reading and writing from other devices) have always been slow, and clearly loading game is reading-heavy task, so it's really expected to see CPU mostly idling.
Ofc, most likely there are enough room for optimization, but I don't have any development details here. -

Gin Fuyou AdminYes, loading times depend on number of objects on map. Some optimizations will happen over time, but I don't have anything concrete yet.
For now I can only recommend getting a SSD for main partition, even quite cheap SATA drive can make a lot of difference with many games loading times. -

AndyI have my processor info at the top of the screen. When loading a game, my processor sits at like 10% for one minute, then goes to 80% and the game loads instantly. It seems like there's a bug that's preventing the game from actually using PC resources to load maybe?
