Are you replying to my 'moving water' reply, or to the OP? If it's about my system running slow with the moving water, I'm running TM2009 on a Ubuntu machine under Wine. No virus checker running.

AMD Duron 1Ghz CPU, 1GB RAM.

With moving water, Troopmaster is using ~ 30% of the CPU just sitting there.
With still water, CPU usage drops to 1%.
