Hi Guys,

A simple project with a video tutorial to show you how to recycle actors instead of using spawn and destroy.

Video is best viewed on youtube in full screen.

Please don't use the artwork in the project :)

I hope some of you find it useful.

Darren.

    Thanks SO much! Perfect timing for my game, which I'm trying to make less memory-intensive.

    Thank you for video.

    I think the recycle method is only used for when the recycled actors (like bullet, rockets) are not complex actors. If the actors you need on scene have more than 20 - 30 rules, you recycle them will low down the fps
