Bigbox - Unstable Wheel Bug

Issue #1634 resolved

When scrolling through the wheel, it sometimes jumbles up or skips around like the video above. Can't remember if I put this here or not, I think I only did in the forums.

The wheel has also frozen bigbox a couple of times since these past few updates.

    Edit: using curve amount to 0.0 visible count to 5 and pagesize to 5 gets it to happen. try using those settings and press up or down at a 1 second interval and it will occur just like the vid I showed. doesn't seem to happen when these values are at their defaults.

    Wow, good find Quan. I had no idea it was settings-specific. No wonder I couldn't reproduce it; will experiment.

    Sadly I still can't reproduce it but I did add some safety checks, so if we're lucky it will be fixed for the next beta. If not, I'll have to keep at it.

    Posted new post in the beta section about the issue and the update. It has improved but see details on other results there :) Also, I think the safety checks created a small lag spike right before settling down on the new game. But it does improve it. 100% of the time, I will switch to a game, and half way to said game, it'll lag a little bit because it's loading the assets and then it'll resume until the logo you chose is finally in place.

    I don't understand how the cache has already cached these items yet this lag happens every time. hmmm. Pretty sure that asset delay option feature I requested long ago will benefit this problem and mask said lag spike. ;) And perhaps blocking input on the moment that the assets load/or are loading will help?
