For performance concerns, '''Simulation''' and '''Render''' cycles are separated '''since {{arma2oa}} v1.60'''.

This means that any object has now "two" positions: the computed one (simulation), and the visual one (render).

Sequencing these operations worked fine only in non-intensive scenarios; as soon as the CPU reached its limits, the simulation frequency was lowered in order to maintain acceptable FPS, resulting in units visually "jumping".
