[Full Release] Important Changes to Inertia and Volume Calculations

The key thing to understand with options is that they combine exponentially complexity wise. If you have three options, there are eight possible combinations of options. The more combinations of options there are the harder a given engine subsystem is to test and eliminate the bugs from. That means that we can’t afford to add an option for every little thing that changes in the engine, otherwise the engine would become so hard to test and keep stable over time that we wouldn’t have any time lef…

Occlusion Culling

ROBLOX mostly uses a shared C++ codebase. We do have platform-specific code (as any game out there does somewhere), but outside of the platform-specific UI (that uses Java on Android, Objective C on iOS, and C++ on other platforms) the amount of platform-specific code is very small, probably <5% (and mostly includes graphics support code and platform-specific optimizations that e.g. use NEON for iOS/Android). However, there is platform-specific code (and platform-specific optimizations) - we d…
