1. Turn off the news spam. I do not need to know that some ambassador has been killed
2. Turn off map AI. I can tell they must be on, as I keep running into partially damaged helpers. There should be no map AI, the scripts should be creating everything.
3. Are there other applications running on the same machine as the SG4 server kit? It's always a good idea to have as little as possible running on the same machine as the server kit.
Keep up the good fight Bonk
