Hi everyone,
In the default scripts Graphics.update is called whenever 100 event commands have been processed in the same frame. (I.e. no wait or anything like that)
Graphics.update means that it draws the screen and waits for framerate sync. Basically there there is an artificial limit on 4000 event commands processed every second which can be a problem if you have large events with fast event commands.
To mitigate this go to line 120 in the Interpreter 1 section in the script editor to find this area:
Change it so that it looks like this:
Now it calls Graphics.update if more than 3 seconds has passed since it started processing. This way as many event commands can be processed as is possible with an upto 1/40 second extra wait every 3 seconds.
Graphics.update must be called every now and then or you'll get a script is hanging exception which crashes the game so it is necessary to have.
*hugs*

Code:
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Frame Update
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def update
# Initialize loop count
@loop_count = 0
# Loop
loop do
# Add 1 to loop count
@loop_count += 1
# If 100 event commands ran
if @loop_count > 100
# Call Graphics.update for freeze prevention
Graphics.update
@loop_count = 0
end
# If map is different than event startup time
if $game_map.map_id != @map_id
Change it so that it looks like this:
Code:
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Frame Update
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def update
# Initialize loop time
@time = Time.now
# Loop
loop do
# If more than three seconds has passed
if Time.now - @time > 3
# Call Graphics.update for freeze prevention
Graphics.update
@time = Time.now
end
# If map is different than event startup time
if $game_map.map_id != @map_id
Now it calls Graphics.update if more than 3 seconds has passed since it started processing. This way as many event commands can be processed as is possible with an upto 1/40 second extra wait every 3 seconds.
Graphics.update must be called every now and then or you'll get a script is hanging exception which crashes the game so it is necessary to have.
