I am planning to make a huge map, with a lot of bricks all I can say is it is going to be at least 60k bricks. (Including Unions)

Apoc. Rising has a new huge map that runs well, I want to have the same performance.


Is there anyway I can increase performance, and decrease lag?

FilteringEnabled + chunk loading system

Does FilteringEnabled improve performance? All I thought is it helps prevent exploiters.

Could you explain chunk loading?

You can also union parts together using solidmodeling. But if you want it to be less laggy chunk loading is a good way to go so not everything is loaded all the time only when needed

FilteringEnabled is a value to set any changes on the client (via LocalScript) to only affect the client (Other people wont see it). Chunk loading takes small portions of the map and shows them to the client so the client's computer wont have to load the whole map at a time.

if you do it right, it will improve performance a ton.

instead of having the data from the entire map being sent to the client, the client can just load and deload parts of it locally, which will keep lag down.

Is this the same concept as chunk loading?

Not quite, streaming loads the map slowly, so you can start playing before the entire map has loaded; it still ends up being slow once the whole map has loaded.

Streaming dynamically loads/unloads parts of the map based on your device performance. It's a much simpler approach to implementing your own dynamic chunk loading/unloading management

Keep in mind that the rendering of the map isn't always what causes the lag, but the memory of storing the map. Try making the server send the client the correct map chunk for their location.
