Polygon Widget // Real time polygon count widget

[DevBuckette]

It would be extremely helpful to have a widget that display in real time how many polygons are present in the currently opened place. As opposing to the CTRL + Shift + F2 menu, which allows you to check the amount of polygons rendered, this widget would take into account every polygon that exists (for example, in lighting.)

This would be incredibly useful for game optimization, to see what parts of the game are expensive on the poly count, and this allows you to make the polygon count much lower.

Seeing as polygon count can affect FPS, I think this will prove useful to a lot of people.

Still waiting for this first:

Read triangle count of MeshParts and UnionOperations

I find it odd that only UnionOperations have the ablity to get its triangle count and not normal BaseParts or MeshParts so I would like to change that an include the property to both BaseParts and MesshParts alike, it wouldn’t have much use other then being able to limit a player to a specific triangle count in a building game/being able to display how many polygons a player is rendering. (Other then Shift+F#, but not a lot of people know about the stat keys) Just a simple request.

Which if that was to be done, then a plugin wouldn’t be too hard to make sooo.

would be sooo helpful if they could add that. I believe Quenty added the union-tris count feature, so he could possibly do it with meshes?
