question for the L:O devs (multithreading)

[tofuman64]

Will legions ever be multithreaded? Would there be a significant performance increase if it was implemented?

 

[GReaper]

No. Our version of the Torque engine doesn't support it.

It's not something we can really add ourselves either.

 

[Mabeline]

Absolutely not. It would be far easier to write a game engine myself than multithread Torque in any meaningful way.

That said, it would yield significant performance increases on CPU-bound systems, but performance is hard to judge without measuring.
