I found a section of code that endlessly loops if there are corpses within viewable area.
It loops for each corpse in view, I can see this being a potential problem that lends to
video lag/latency I have experienced in mass slaughters and OP wars.

Don't ask how I figured it out as a project I am working on led to this discovery.

// Set the bar
        if (_Bars[HP])
{
            sint value = (sint)_BatLength * barInfo.Score[SCORES::hit_points] / RZ_BARS_LENGTH;
            if ( ! _Entity->isForageSource() )
    {
                if (value < 0)
        {
                    value = value;
                    _Bars[HP]>setColorRGBA(BarColorHPNegative);
                }
                else
        {
                    _Bars[HP]->setColorRGBA(BarColor[HP]);
                }
                // if dead creature, force the hp to 0
                if( _Entity->mode() == MBEHAV::DEATH && !_Entity->isPlayer() && !_Entity->isUser())
        {    
                    if( value > 0 )
            {
                        value = 0;
                    }
                }
            }

It is the last if statement that loops or that showed me the signs of the looping.
