That is because I have found the issue is generally memory related. Path finding takes a lot of RAM, and scales up the larger the map.

No change for me. in the 3h I was playing i had to reload like a dozen times.
Same on Antiquitas and other MC maps

I made a few more changes this morning after playing through blarg's insanely large map (both in population and width/height).

I didn't realize how much CPU it was taking to update the collision map every cycle, because on normal sized maps it's not a very big deal. Blarg's map was something like 10x the normal map size, and I could tell recalculating the map every cycle was a big performance drain. Now, the collision map is only recalculated when a new structure is either placed or destroyed, which should help.

Also, I realized on huge maps like that, you could have rovers harvesting miles away and you would never even see them, so it didn't make much sense to conduct real path-finding for them. So now if a unit (could be colonist or rover) generates a path order where it's source and destination locations are both off-screen, instead of doing normal path-finding, the unit will just slowly teleport over to the destination after a specific amount of time has passed, based on the distance between the two points and the kind of roads that are on the ground. So that should take load off of the path finder by removing most colonist and non-construction drone path-finding orders.

Generally this wont help when you start a new building construction, since the destination location is more than likely in the center of your view. But if you order a bunch of new roads to be built and then go off and pay attention to something else, the bots will not have to path-find when they move from one road construction site to the next.

sounds promising!

I've noticed my vehicle stop building / moving after a user dialog box pops up (paying taxes or paying out salary).

Working really well now with the latest change. Thx 👍.
Sounds more like a workaround than a solution to the root problem 😉, but seems to work for me, even on big maps.
