Frame rate drop while FSD charging

[glynie]

On a long voyage I am in super-cruise each time I jump into a new system. When I charge the FSD to jump to the next system, the frame rate drops significantly. If I cancel the FSD charging then the frame rate returns to normal.

Charge, FPS drop. Stop, FPS increase. Can literally trigger it with a touch of a button.

This problem did not occur before 1.2.

Opening and closing panel 1 also stops this frame rate drop. All I have to do is press '1' twice: I look to the left, I look back to center, and then the lag goes away. It's really irritating.

Are you near SagA*? I get it there too. I have a key bound to 1,2,3,4 shift. It's the secret performance password!

It actually works if you do it each time you enter a new system.

Are you near SagA*?

Kinda. 6,000 LY south, heading home.

So you press all those buttons one after the other?

I'm also in the core regions and experienced this same FPS drop. I was starting to get worried that there's something wrong with my PC.
Thanks a lot for the workaround!

Same issue. I'm exactly 5.5kly from old Sagy and its terrible. Goes from 144fps to 27 fps on a GTX 980 and i7 4770K. Looking at the target panel on the lift fixes the craziness.
