This is only my second post, please do tell me if I put this in the wrong category!
Hi! I’ve found that games with lots of terrain lag a lot.
I used to have a game with lots of water surrounding the border, which you could drown in, preventing players going where they weren’t supposed to, but this caused a lot of lag when loading the game. Some users couldn’t even play because of this!
Is there a way to prevent lag from terrain? If so, how?
Thanks!
Perhaps enabling StreamingEnabled in workspace could fix the lag issue, however it’s not recommended in some cases.
Such as some instances may be delayed/not loaded when scripts are executed, so using WaitForChild is needed while StreamingEnabled is enabled.
What can StreamingEnabled do? What is it’s function?
afaik
StreamingEnabled avoids downloading instances at a defined min/max range. This applies for terrain as well.
However, I don’t recommend it because instances may not load in time and scripts may not work properly until you go within range of instances.
Thanks! I will definitely try this out!
Wow! Just like that, the whole game runs a lot smoother! Thank you so much!
