Performance problem

freneticz

I have a game that is "finish" exept its lag to much.

I have a main actor that spawns a trail every 0.02 sec & the trail spawns a glow .

Is there a better way to spawn a trail (& glow) because the fps dip from 58 to ~17 .

I can spawn a trail with a built in glow but then there will be so many actors , cause to different trails with different colors & the same with the glow.

Can it be achieved with particles instead of spawning? Spawning every .02 with a nested spawn can definitely cause some lag, depending on what else is going on.

When i try patricles the startuptime is 2-3 sec whatever i set the startuptime to.

Try making startup time same as the lifetime.
