It’s probably because of lag, try changing quality to low.

I could, but it’s still at 41 FPS, and I’m not running anything else while it’s idling. Plus, it worked fine when I didn’t have dual monitors on the same computer.

If it’s at 41 FPS, then what’s the problem?

The progress speed of the game itself. Like, for example, overnight, I would only gain like 10 levels, even though I should be gaining around 50. I started a new savefile, so I’m only in the 200 level range. It worked fine before I had dual monitors, but now it is going slower than usual.

Dude. Game speed is based on FPS, so if your FPS is at 40, it’s running full speed. The things that don’t run by FPS, run by system clock, as far as I know.

If you still claim it’s slow, I would check that you have the run in background fix. Perhaps it’s a case of flash thinking it’s in the background.

Yeah, but it could be at a lower frame rate when I’m not playing. Like, 10 hours could pass by and the game could be open the whole 10 hours, but the game itself would only register 8 hours passing by, so only 8 hours of progress is recorded during idle. Sorry if it sounds confusing.

I feel like you are not listening. Read the posts again, and when you’ve tried everything listed in them with no improvement, come back.

And with “no improvement”, I don’t mean “I think I should be gaining”. I mean “With one screen I gained X yesterday, and now I gained Y”. Actual test, not “I think”.

I never said “I think”, lol.
Anyway, what I’m trying to say (and trust me, I’m trying to understand what you’re saying) is that when I am idling the game, (as in I am keeping the window open in idle mode while my user is switched out) my savefile is not progressing as much as it was when I started my first savefile about 2 months ago. I would go from level 200 to 210 overnight, although common sense tells me I normally would gain at least 30 to 40 levels. I’m using IE9, so Chrome’s update won’t cause any kind of weird lag. I keep my window open, not minimized, so that can’t be the problem. What I’m basically trying to say is that I am getting less progress with it opened in dual monitors compared to a single monitor. I want to keep the dual screen format, but still want to have the progress I used to have back when I had a single screen. Please understand my reasoning.

How can I fix Flash thinking it’s in the background if that is the case?

The way you speak sounds very… loose. Not certain. Hence why I read it as “I think I should but I’m not sure”. But I follow your reasoning.

Try the background thing and if that does not solve it, I have no idea.

Ok, so I did the background thing. Now only time can answer my question. Thanks for the help.

How does the ascension perm. perk tree work? Or can you just get any of them, at any time? (If you have the actual perk point, of course)

The OCD one is just there to complete the triangle?

You can start in the corners, and then if you have enough points you can get ones that are connected to ones you have unlocked.

The OCD perk is just for completion, or if you want to start working on the impossible perks from the top down instead of the bottom up.

Hey there o/

Today was THE Day when I’d have open all my 20k+ progress boxes !… But I notice a ‘cooldown’ on them Oo I just can open a few then appears a “wait” (no matter if I go manualy or tab+click and even if insta-prog. aren’t stacked).
Is it new ? To prevent insta-ascend or something I guess ?

how exactly does the idlebot card work?

When you’re not active, it turns Idle mode off for the first 50% of the progress bar, on for the second half and off at 100% to claim it, like if you moved the mouse or so. Thus you get progresses quicker even if afk !

It’s a PB nerf for impossible ascensions. Since Tukkun has the habit of making a feature and throwing away the info about it, not many knows it exists. People that weren’t around back when he announced have no way to know either.

The system was explained some time ago, search the forum for “impossible PB” or something like that.

If you’re looking to work mainly on increasing rep, which zone is the best to adventure in?

Definitely not town. It also somewhat depends on how much resources you are willing to waste.

It ought to be fairly easy to calculate though using Draconi’s adventure guide.

Based on my experience, Untitled Zone is best for rep.

Should I fuse my HG shirt with my Knightmare shirt?
I plan on enhancing the Knightmare shirt with full Crit which I already did to the HG shirt so is fusion a good idea?

I would only fuse HG to itself as it is only a quite temporary set before chaos. Isn’t Knightmare quite expensive?

It is quite expensive.
I have had my HG for 4 ascensions now. I have not had luck with the Mystery Enhancers and I’m trying to finish crit enhancing the last two pieces.
As it is now, I can not get Chaos yet. I guess I’m not quite fast enough. I know I’m too scared to try to open any chests before fighting Chaos. What is the minimum amount of chests that need to be opened in order to get Chaos armor?

 
avatar for Aurian Aurian 6277 posts

I believe they say 10 chests is necessary now. It used to be 7-8, so I suppose you could start with that.

Just fuse you HG with CN armor its not to expensive but its power is equal to or greater then good chaos armor.
