So Automation was in the loading screen today and then it just minimized itself and I was not able to pull it back up for about 30 seconds. After I pulled it back up I went to a V8 scenario and it had the stats of the engine I made, but just a black picture instead of an engine. I closed the game and reopened it. Ever since then I have been having low frame rates with the game. I have double checked that every setting is where it used to be when I used to get high frame rates. Oh and there are floating fire sprites that pop up whenever I am messing with an engine that was not the first engine or scenario I clicked on after I first launch the game. You know, the ones that simulate the explosion in the engine. Should I just uninstall and delete everything that has to do with Automation on my PC and then download and reinstall it again for a fresh start?
That’s indeed a strange bug. I’d try a reinstall first, and let us know if that fixes it or not.
Reinstalling Automation fixed the bug. I still had low frame rate and then I realized that my laptop was on power saver mode. 
I Put it in the default mode and now the frame rates are back to normal.
