How many actors per frame?

How many actors can be created per frame?

[skydereign]

Any number. Eventually though the game slows down trying to create them all, but technically it still does it in the same frame.

[phyzix5761]

Hmmm ok. Cause I am having trouble creating more than 8 actors per frame.

[skydereign]

Well that definitely would not be the lower limit. For instance in that time loop demo I made, it creates a little under 10000 actors in a single frame.

What code are you using?

[phyzix5761]

It's a code I'm working on for procedural generation of 2d terrain.

Use this code

Code: Select all

int i;

//replace NUM with the number of actors
//you want to create per frame

for(i=0;i<NUM;i++;)
{
    CreateActor("actor", ...);
}


Of course, don't put the ...'s xD Just use the standard createactor thing there.

Yes my code is very similar to that. It's not the generation that is the problem it's something else. I just have to figure out what. Thanks though.

Well, if you can upload the code you're using, maybe one of us can help you
