I notice that GM's code editor is very slow when I set my laptop to power saving mode, why is this? Any other code editor out there doesn't have this behavior.
e.g when I type something, it doesn't come out instantly like when you would type on a notepad or notepad++ or really any other code editor, and worse, doesn't always register. Those other code editors that set the 'standard' seems to not have a text processing overhead thus register any presses instantly, regardless of whichever power saving modes I put my laptop in.
This seems like an unacceptable flaw if this is confirmed, too bad the price of all the export modules don't match with the basic functionality of this software. I tried this (https://yellowafterlife.itch.io/gmedit) by YellowAfterLife and it's actually a lot better, every key press registers instantly. Too bad you have to break other workflow system when going after an external editor like that.
On balanced/normal mode (power saving off), everything works perfectly, though not to a level of those other standard code editors, but okay enough to make me not think about it.
Unfortunately for me, I will always need to use the power saving mode as my laptop only lasts less than 2 hours on battery.
I'm running an Intel 4720HQ, GTX 950M, 8GB, and 120GB SSD if that helps.
