Lag Debugging Icons

Lag Debugging Icons

Occasionally during gameplay you may experience one of three different types of lag icons, they are listed below with explanations.

Disk Access

This occurs when the client software is accessing your hard disk, either to access game graphics or to manage its memory allocation.

Network Access

This is due to a slow or lagging internet connection. If you find that you are experiencing network access lag a lot, this may be due to a bad connection or some other form of network slowdown.

World Map Access

This indicates the client is slowing down because it’s loading a new section of the map that wasn’t in memory. If you find that this icon stays on for inordinately long amounts of time, you should report it to an HGM.
