Summary	0001058: FPS doesn't work at slower-than-1x time compression
Description	It's a minor thing, but the optional FPS on the HUD suddenly turns to 0.0 when time compression is slower than normal (whether cheating or through SEXP).
Additional Information	The code line in Freespace.cpp (4050 or so) is sprintf( text, NOX("FPS: %.1f"), Framerate * (Game_time_compression>>16)); I'd fix it myself but I'm not so familiar with the bitwise operator and don't know what to do here. I'm guessing it's an easy fix. If it ends up taking you more than 15 minutes, it's probably not worth the bother.
Tags	No tags attached.

taylor 2006-09-22 09:58 administrator ~0006669	Yep, easy fix. Actually it just needs to be using flRealframetime there, so that it doesn't have to even care about time compression. I'll commit the change later today.
