Does it lessen the lag because your game doesn't have to render what isn't seen, or does it cause more lag by adding another effect?

Idk, I actually think if you have a lot of bricks that this can make less lag.

Pretty sure it's just a decal pasted over the camera. Doesn't lag.

Well you might as well leave the thread here instead of making a duplicate in BH, since SH and BH are close enough. Accidentally posting it in Clans & Guilds is another story.

It's just a rendered layered thing in the game engine.

Personally, I'd see it adding lag.

It makes it seem like they're rendering the same amount when really it's smaller chunks being generated.
