Long click times

I've been away from this game for a while and decided to play again on my new computer. I did clean install, updated to latest version and started a new game. I then discovered that each click i make, such as adding ships to a task force takes a long time. I click a ship, wait 1 to 2 seconds, and the ship moves to the task force. 1 more click, 2 more seconds, a second ship is added to the task force. This delay is like this when working with aircraft, pilots, troops, everything that you have to click, there is a long delay. it's making the first turn...well, excessively long to say the least and when Ive played before the click time was immediate, no wait.

Does anyone know if there is something I can adjust? I can't play this because it just takes too damn long to get anything done!

Make a shortcut to "War in the Pacific Admiral Edition.exe"
Right click on shortcut then properties.
In your shortcut to C:\Matrix Games\War in the Pacific Admiral's Edition\War in the Pacific Admiral Edition.exe add the command line switches.

NOT THE AUTORUN SHORTCUT

Example:

"C:\Matrix Games\War in the Pacific Admiral's Edition\War in the Pacific Admiral Edition.exe" -SingleCpuOrders -deepColor -dd_sw -altFont

The command line switches are covered in the "WhatsNew.pdf" in the game folder

People use different switches depending on their computer. But some switches are required for all. -deepColor -dd_sw are very important.

use keyboard - and not - from .pdf. Use the smaller dash.
