What Type of Bug are you experiencing?

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Launch the Creative map.
  2. Play normally for several minutes in different locations.
  3. Destroy several vehicles and use Pepper Spray multiple times to generate smoke and spark effects.
  4. Continue playing and revisit previously visited areas.
  5. Observe that many white smoke and spark effects remain in the world instead of disappearing.
  6. Monitor the game’s performance as these effects continue to accumulate.

Expected Result

White smoke from Pepper Spray and spark effects from destroyed vehicles should disappear after a short time instead of remaining in the world. The map should maintain stable FPS and smooth gameplay without random stuttering.

Observed Result

After playing for some time, I noticed a large number of white smoke effects from Pepper Spray and spark effects from destroyed vehicles spread throughout the map. These visual effects continue to appear during gameplay, while many of the previous effects never disappear, causing them to accumulate over time.
The map also experiences random FPS drops and gameplay stuttering.

I cannot confirm that these lingering visual effects are the direct cause of the performance issues, but they may be contributing to them and could be worth investigating.
