say you have a mesh for a SINGLE DOOR
do you use it to make a DOUBLE DOOR [with 2 of these meshes]
OR do you make a NEW mesh for the DOUBLE door?
- use SAME mesh
- use a DIFFERENT mesh for it

which is BETTER for performance?
So your question is. 2 single door meshes or one double door mesh? I don’t think it would make much of a difference, optimization is a good practise to learn but unless you’re making a very large game anything above terrible optimization will do
I’m pretty sure is “Use same mech or different” will affect performance regardless. Optimizations will entirely (minus some problems the engine may have) be dependent on you and if you don’t make a effort to optimize your game, your game will be very intensive for no reason.
Using the same mesh twice would give you 1 less draw call, but the performance increase from that would be unnoticeably small.
You could really choose either for performance, but using 2 separate parts makes it easier to work with (things like opening/closing the double door)
So I would say using 2 parts with the same mesh is better overall.
Truly it depends on if the sides are indentical. If so, use the same mesh of course. Though when not, you should make a different mesh.
Using same meshes are more performant than using different ones since Roblox loads stuff based on if something like it has already been loaded or not.
