I'm trying to understand the solution to this lag problem. Finding Maggie is impossible because I cannot scroll through my town. The lag has gotten worse since act 3 of the current event started. If the problem is with the new I&Sland rides, then is EA fixing it? This rapid game expansion came with problems. Trying to scroll through my town is impossible.
The solution is
simple, and stated dozens of times in this thread. Disconnect a race track piece to stop the animation. It works as dozens have said. If the log ride or roller coaster cause you the same issue, do the same.
Is EA working on the problem? Well it has previously been posted that there is a "turn off animation" text in the code and it is expected that perhaps in the takedown we will get this feature.
The game has expanded and many devices do not possess the processor power and ram to avoid the lag. My Galaxy S5 can not be used with any of the rides connected , my S7 has them all flying and no lag. When you buy a game there are minimum hardware requirements for it to run at full speed on everything. If you don't meet the specs you have to downgrade the settings to fix it. Consider disconnecting the tracks as the same. It solves the issue and you continue using the game.
If the game survives long enough we will eventually reach the point that many devices will be left behind. This game seems to like lots of free space and lots of ram.
Every expansion comes with issues. Think about it. If you design a game for a certain console, every user has the same hardware, and you solve the issues and all is well. These games work on tons of different hardware, processors, ram, operating systems. There will be issues. They almost always get fixed, and the great people here find work-arounds in the interim.
