Question Sensors take a very long time to show up

I've gotten used to this. In my current game it started way back in Sanctuary. I am even considering re-writing some sections of the scripts as an FO4SE extension to help fix it. (I know, big talk.)

But it only just occurred to me to ask "is this normal?" When I build a plot, the sensor doesn't appear for long time, sometimes 30 minutes or more. Does this happen to everyone? My machine is very far from a potato. I can't imagine how people deal with it on XBox.

Is it, by any chance, an issue with AMD processors? Mine is a Ryzen Threadripper 1950X.
 
hey, @jeem have you tried a different save file or is it just your current save?

I have never seen this myself. Longest I have ever seen in maybe a min or two so kind of looking for the light switch in the dark here.

I once had something similar with the plaques not showing up like this, my save file ended up being corrupt.
 
Thanks for the reply. I've had it happen with at least a couple of different play throughs, but they used very similar mods. The obvious cause is extreme script lag. That's why it's so strange that it happened in SH, right after the return from the Museum of Freedom.

It's not happening now. <shrug> Next time it happens, I will capture ReSaver script info, etc. I'm glad to know at least that it doesn't necessarily happen for everyone, all the time.
 
I used to have a problem with sensors taking forever to show up, as well as a few other issues, but it all came back to a mod called “clean my settlement” some people have issues with it some don’t, it’s all about that key load order, I just couldn’t get it to work right. The worst was new plots trying to build out of their type, say I’d drop 3 residential plots they would try to build commercial plots.
