Since Alt1 has replaced the Launcher upon the request of Aeriagames, there is now an issue with a lot of resources being allocated due to the launcher not exiting properly. It is advised that you kill the Launcher process in order to achieve the highest of performance within the game. This can be done by issuing the following command within 'Terminal.app' (Command must run as the user that started the application):
kill -9 ps ux | grep Launcher | awk '{print $2}'
It is HIGHLY advised to run this after the launcher either pushes you into game, or fails to load. It is advised when it fails to load, as it will take additional time to shutdown crossover with this application still running, than it will if this process is no longer around.
