Playing FG Unity on a Mac it will slowly take up all the CPU.
Usually starts off at 50% but will creep up within about 1.5~2 hour or so of play to use up whatever CPU the mac has.
It was so bad that it is affecting the rest of the apps like browser and discord. This is very consistent, so i had to restart FG every 1.5 to 2 hrs. See attached image.

Welcome, thanks for posting :)
What version of FGU are you using? What ruleset? Extensions? What modules do you have loaded? What Mac OS are you using?
Thanks for reporting. We've had a few reports that this seems to occur more frequently on Macs. Carl is tracking down some leads on memory usage for images.
Can you run with your monitor open next time, and after the initial startup, let us know which windows/actions seem to trigger the most CPU gain without dropping after you're done?
Regards,

I have noticed this behavior as well recently. Seems to be happening when I have a large battle map open with the players on it. The map has LoS turned on, and there are a lot of nodes in the LoS schema. I haven't specifically noticed the CPU usage going up, but when one of the players attempts to do something (make an attack, apply damage, etc), my screen gets the spinning beach-ball of death for a not insignificant amount of time and I don't get the results of the player action in the chat until that stops. We can then continue playing for a little while until it happens again. We're all playing locally, so it's not network issues. I'm running on FGU 4.0.0 Ultimate (2020-06-19) and the attached image shows the mac info. I'm running 5e Ruleset and HotDQ. I am also running a bunch of the Rob2e effects coding modules. I have a couple of big font extensions, but I don't think I have them loaded for the campaign, because they weren't really working properly (I think they are old FGC extensions).

Definitely when loading the map... was paying close attention to this even before.Quote:

Let me do some tests with the express purpose of checking the CPU and provide a chart at least to give you something more substantial to work with. Although it might be next week though (our FG Unity session)
THanks!
Not sure when it starts but confirmed in every session with Unity on macOS 10.14.6 that it eats all CPU until it maxes out the computer. Eventually this causes the loss of functionality in communicating with the GM computer and the program must be restarted after about 3 hours.

It appears to be spawning threads until the computer is overwhelmed.
Same for one on my players. Her Mac over heated until he crashed.
