Additional Notes & Comments:
This doesn't happen 24/7 but it happens enough where it causes alot of issues.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Literally run dramaturgy or have someone else drama
  2. Have an item spawn or have a status effect appear ect.
  3. Get a huge lag spike 90 percent of the time and then get stuck or run into a wall and die.

Explanation

Whenever I'm playing dbd for the past few years I have had to deal with lag spikes. This effects my gameplay in a lot of ways mostly on survivor due to it making me get stuck in chests or lockers OR Throw the chase all together. After testing more I found the root cause with a 99 percent chance of it being it. While in customs with my friend i had her run drama which in the past i found lags me whenever it drops a item. The items that cause the most lag is fog vials and toolboxes but not only drama makes it happen it can be a multitude of things like status effects and other things it can happen even if i'm not running drama and if someone else is using it ect. The main reason i know it is on YOUR side and not on mine is 1. Nthin on ram gpu cpu and or network and 2. When i'm tabbed out it doesn't happen when i'm tabbed in it happens so best way I can explain it is go to the game press f11 while moving that is the lag spike I get. It is from the game client itself and not from my pc or the specs of the pc. I have dealt with this again for YEARS and i'm sick of dealing with it.
