When I attach collision objects to the hex tiles, the game frame rate drops below 10-20 fps. in an effort to mitigate this, I am trying to convert the map to use a MultiMeshInstance instead. I was able to get this to work for the map size (75 145), but now frame rate are even worse, and I have yet to implement tile color, the collision area or the map wrapping feature. I am using the Kaby Lake HD 620 gfx card, and I wonder if this may be the cause. ''' hexMultiMesh->set_mesh(hexMesh); hexMultiMesh->set_transform_format(1); hexMultiMesh->set_instance_count(numRow numCol); hexMultiMeshInstance->set_multimesh(hexMultiMesh); for (int x = 0; x < numRow; x++) { for (int y = 0; y < numCol; y++) { hexMultiMesh->set_instance_transform(x numRow + y, Transform(Basis(), Vector3((sqrt(3) / 2) (x + y / 2.0) 2, 0.0, -y 1.5))); } } add_child(_hexMultiMeshInstance); ''' I'm wondering if there's a way to improve fps using either method, the multimesh or the individual mesh instances attached to custom hex node classes with collision objects.
Converting from MeshInstance to MultiMeshInstance
I'm don't know much about hex maps. But some general questions:
Did you try to use the GLES2 renderer instead of GLES3 ? (works usually better on weak "graphic cards")
How many meshes are you trying to render? (numRow, numCol)
How complex is that "_hexMesh". (i.e. number of vertices)
Use any light sources? If yes, a single one or more?
How complex is that collision shape?
- Edited
10,845 hex tiles. 26 verts per tile. Collision shape is the mesh turned into a convex shape. performance sucks just as bad when I use a simple shape of just 6 verts too. Haven't tried GLES 2. One directional light source. The multimesh made the fps drop below 0.5 so I'm sure that's out of the question. It runs fine when the hex tiles have no collider attached. The whole reason I want collision info is that I want to know when a tile is clicked on. Is there a better, less resource intensive way I can do this? I'll edit the source code into this comment when I get back to my pc. (Sorry, code made this comment too large)
