Very High (Process-)Priority
Darkpriest667:
Repeatedly.. for some reason no matter what i have tried... this program opens and the priority is set to very high.... now i wouldnt mind that except it causes my whole system to lag like crazy and usually takes me 15 to 20 minutes to reset to medium where it belongs JUST LIKE EVERY other program for windows... Why is the default startup priority very high.. and how can i change it to default to medium... I have tried everything i know and I cannot fix it...
If you can in the next release please set the default startup of the program to medium priority... its a major pain in the behind
BTAxis:
It's normal on my system.
Destructavator:
If I remember right, I think there is a command-line switch for ufo.exe that can change the priority it runs at, so you can start the game at a different setting.
I've also noticed that the game tends to remember the last settings used in many cases.
Destructavator:
Found it: it is a cvar called "sys_priority"
There is also "sys_affinity" which controls how many cores and which ones are used on a multi-core machine.
From memory, I think it is something like:
ufo.exe +set sys_priority 0
I might be off a bit on the syntax, but I think that's clsoe to what you want. ("0" is for "normal" priority, while "1" and "2" are for higher ones.) The console has the command "cvarlist" which I think lists all the potential switches.

where is the default file path folder.. ill change it immediately.. and no it doesnt remember the last setting as i have had to reset it every time since i installed 2.2.1
