[NOOB QUESTION] lots of lag

Jul 11, 2013 Blake1234 link
I'm on a droid RAZR and I was playing (today is my first day please excuse my noobyness) and I randomly started getting lag whenever I looked at ports. I asked the people on chat and they told me to mess around with the graphics and video settings so I decided to put everything at the lowest it could go and that didn't help the lag does anybody know the cause and how to fix this?

Lag is usually a network problem and theres not a lot you can do about it.
The command /ping should show you your times . Under 200 is playable,

If your in station and getting delays theres a long delay getting mission data when you first log in.

Otherwise a better and more precise description of your problem would help.....

PaK: It was slowing down specifically when he looked at docking ports (and maybe large objects according to what he was saying in chat). So it wasn't anything network related.

Blake: Huh, good to know. I wouldn't have thought to consider that turning things up might solve anything. Must have to do with how the hardware is optimized or something.
