Two Questions

[Dr Bling]

1. Is there a way to make bricks only load when you get within a certain distance of them? Or go into a certain area?
2. Is there a way to make certain areas of a map not load until you get close to them.

Just two questions I needed answering. I really need to know this for my rpg mod map...

Any brick that's out of the "View Distance" won't lag the player.

There was a way Monty did it once, they had 50k bricks across maybe 10 squared base plates(100 total). With no lag. And some of them didnt load until they got really close. But they were all in viewing distance.

As Packer said, bricks outside the player's view distance aren't rendered, therefore you can place tens of thousands of bricks without causing lag to the player. I miss the teleports from RTB, you could escape lag by making teleports between long distances, avoiding the drawing of staticshapes.

What about making the view distance shorter?
