End Turn (AI Turns) takes forever.

[McClure777]

When I first start a campaign, its not so bad. I'll click the end turn key and it'll take around 2 minutes for it to be my turn again. But as the campaign progresses the turns take longer and longer. I'm at turn 18 atm, and it takes 7 to 8 minutes for the AI to finish up their turns. I'm not sure why this would be happening, I experience no lag in battles and haven't seen a CTD yet. Here are my specs.

Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3820 CPU @ 3.60GHz

RAM: 16.0 GB

Display: AMD Radeon HD 6850


Any suggestions?

I am experiencing the same problem as the person above. Although my specs are WAY lower than yours, my specs is Intel Core Duo 1.6 Ghz and 2Gb of Ram. Even playing as Asian nation doesn't help. Someone help!

I really do wonder what exactly cause the slow-down on some ppls machines. Mine is still a dual-core OC'ed at somewhere @3.6 [8GB ram] and turns take no longer than half a minute: like 10-15 seconds after I started a fresh game .. 30-40 seconds midgame and become noticeable shorter once several factions got obliterated.
either with/without BGR II or IV or RR on/off. No other mods installed though.

(even with: show 'other factions movement stuff' enabled, which is important to me ^^)

While it might no help at all, it is definitely not computer-spec-dependant!

Back again,
If anyone is playing any European faction in SS and is having trouble with SS's turn time do the following:
-Before you end your turn move your map view so that it faces any of the desert areas (Egypt, Moors). I noticed that some of the areas on the map are either heavily scripted or just just have too much graphical details. When facing the desert areas you'd probably notice smoother game play, end your turn and watch the magic happen, because this method speeds up my turns by 40 seconds
NOTE: Before ending turns make sure ALL of your characters that have planned movement make their movement.

-Remove factions like ; Cuman Empire, Kievan Rus and Novgorod for descr_strat.txt, placed in (Current Partition drive)....\M2TW\mods\Stainless_Steel_6\data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign. I removed these factions, which made my game play a lot better. However there is an issue with this step. These changes are applied to the "Early Era Campaign" only, not included in the late one. This means that the late campaign has to be modified in another document (which I can't find).

Does anyone know where I can find the right files for the late era campaign? (descr_strat, events, mercenaries etc)
