A tale as old as time - CPU bottlenecking
As described in my earlier post “My plan to render 1 million trees”, my game has a grid system of sprites; each one displays a small chunk of the world as rendered by the SubViewport. But because the viewport moves around, we can’t simply just set each sprite to have a ViewportTexture as this would mean they all would display the same thing.
