Hi Erik, Great to hear your idea, which makes me want to investigate on this deeper. As you said, removing models at the beginning of reset, and then loading needed models again apparently looks better to me. However, it seems it takes longer for me to investigate on this since I'm not that familiar with model loadings.
Thus, I want to ask Till and Tim to find a better means of handle this issue. I'll also sneak around the code to see what is the better way. It might also takes a bit while for the better way. Plus, Durk was kindly committed my patch. (thanks!) So here is my suggestion. First, we use my patch as a temporal fix just to prevent the fps drop. Second, we investigate a reasonable means of loading and unloading AIModels on reset (and remove my patch). Any opinions? Best, Tat p.s. Tim, I've tested what you said on IRC, and I think that running last two lines of FGAIBase::init on reset would be OK so far. My patch is gonna be useless by the time the better way is introduced, but I just want to let you know.
