Short, but noticable lag spike coming out of workshop mode

I'm not sure this is even a bug with WS+ or if it is just some combination of my rig and other workshop mods installed, but the lag spike wasn't there before WS+ so I'm mentioning it. Going into workshop mode has no noticeable freezes / lags, though the known issue with lights / vision happens, but when I come out, the workshop menu disappears, but after a couple of seconds, there's a freeze for about a second, then everything is normal with lights / vision coming back on.

I'm not sure what causes this. It isn't critical a problem, but a little annoying for someone who constantly pops in and out of workshop mode sometimes for obsessive-compulsive reasons.

EDIT: For clarification, this has happened since the first iteration of both WS+ and WSFW.
 
Try disabling some of the character edits, such as flight, to see if that stops the delay. If so, then you'll likely have to decide which you prefer - the fancy abilities or the no delay.

There's not likely anything I can do about the delay unfortunately. That's all of the scripts popping in response to Workshop Mode entry/exit.
 
I'll test that. Another weirdo thing, though you may have covered this elsewhere, but power armor seems to be a little more sluggish with flight mode and super speed than without it. It still works, but it feels like I'm walking on an Ice Level.
 
If you have a jetpack, it can cause issues. Otherwise, I haven't seen any problems using PA.
 
Oh! Yeah, freeze time can definitely do that. In fact, on your way into workshop mode, there's a noticeable lag spike, because the freeze time affects you as well for a moment.
 
Yeah, that one I noticed. It's the exit one that I don't think should be affected. Again, not a big deal and I'll play with the settings to see if I can loosen that puppy up a tad.

EDIT: Yeah, it is just the race change from having flight mode on. I can turn that, pardon the pun, bugger off without a problem.
