When editing a ParticleFX component, it plays faster in the editor than in-game

Defold version (REQUIRED):
Screenshots (OPTIONAL):
I’ve been reluctant to report this myself. Seems like particle properties in game are 0.5x the numbers shown in the editor.
When did this start happening?
I sadly don’t know, I just tried using particles for the first time yesterday.
I’ve experienced it since… a long time ago. Maybe it has something to do with settings, refresh rate, etc… would it be helpful for me to make an example project and post it here? I wonder if anyone else notices the same behavior.
I also get this issue on my laptop, which has hybrid graphics.
However, I’ve also noticed the issue only manifests when using the dedicated graphics card (AMD R7 M370) - the editor appears to run at only 30fps.
But if I disable that card and use the on-board graphics instead (Intel HD 520) the editor particlefx run at the correct rate.
@britzl I have found out that the more fps the editor is running at, the quicker the particlefx plays.
However that won’t happen when playing the game (doesn’t matter how many fps).
I have a 144 hz monitor refresh rate which probably is the issue
