Different speed gameplay

[jvondermarck]

Hi @AlmasB, a friend and I when we run the FXGL game, we have a different speed gameplay. It looks faster on my computer but on my friend the game looks running slower.

We both have a really good computer so that's weird.

Hi, you can enable profiling via GameSettings object to see whether you have different results.

By default, FXGL relies on JavaFX to lock the frame rate, which in turn means the loop runs at the display refresh rate speed. So, for example, if you have a 120fps display, the game will run twice as fast. To change this behavior, you can lock the fps to 60, again via GameSettings.

Oh thank you for your answer, we're gonna lock the fps to 60. 👌

@AlmasB Sorry but I didn't found in the GameSettings class how to lock the fps to 60 ? Do you have any idea how to do it ?

[AlmasB]

It should be: settings.setTicksPerSecond(60) inside the initSettings() callback.
