UI Freeze during intense battle moments

    I have strange issue that is intermittent but always occurs (when it occurs) during intense battle moments where I am doing a lot of turning and item switching. The UI will freeze and become unresponsive to item presses or throttle movement. It only happens for a brief time <5s. One result is that I will have the repair box launcher view with the sniper cannon activated or vice versa. I can eventually use the item when the UI unfreezes but it's strange being in sniper cannon view firing a repair box.

    This could be internet or device lag I suppose, but i would like to know which if possible to try to improve. I am playing on a Android Samsung Galaxy Tab A.

    Internet lag should never freeze the UI so it's something else. We are actively trying to make sure the performance is at it's best level and I'm sure we can bring improvements in the future.

    You all do a great job. Just expanding upon my description if it helps you in the future: the graphics on the screen still change normally. Boat still moves and other players still do their thing on screen with no noticeable slow down. It's just the UI buttons become unresponsive for a short period of time.

    Mika, would you consider to make under settings a config for particles and other things to give the chance to the player to experience better performance/visualfx? for example In my case with an iPhone 6+ have a lot of FPS drops (like 3-4 fps) when there is a lot burning water

    If you mean your FPS drops to 3-4 FPS in any situation then that is some kind of a bug, not heavy effects.

    It only happens when a lot of things are going on, explosions, and always burning water, I'd say that it happens on 1 of 8 +/- battles, so it's not so important, the fx are super cool, but I prefer better perfomance.. If you say it is not on effects, then it'd be great to find the bug.
    Thanx!
