A creature with 500 parts requires more processing power to render than one with 50. This can lead to lag, especially during the creature stage on lower-end computers.
| Complexity Level | Polygon Count | Performance Impact | Stability | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | ~3k polys | 60 FPS | Rock solid | | 2x Max (600 pts) | ~6k polys | 45-55 FPS | Stable | | 5x Max (1500 pts) | ~15k polys | 20-30 FPS | Occasional stutter | | 10x Max (3000+ pts) | 30k+ polys | <15 FPS (Slideshow) | High crash risk |
