Black ice creating lag?

I know at one point building in Black ice was known to slow down and make your server lag is that still a thing?

No more than any other set that I’m aware of… foundations don’t do that either anymore. They just look really ugly in high volume.

Yes Black ice still lags when you incapsulate foundations completely in fence foundations. Roof stacking is also super laggy but not legal anyways.People still do it tho.

That’s not any different than any other building set. It’s not caused by Black Ice, it’s caused by stacking snap points.

Someone told me its “set fighting” the pieces overlap and create actions for the server because they are both requesting the right to render over and over.But i could be wrong.

I’ve both played on servers and have built admin created dungeons of around ~100,000 Black Ice Pieces each. They did not lag the server, it did not lag anyone in them (outside of the normal delay someone gets when teleporting on HDD).

Black Ice causing lag is a myth like foundations causing lag that just won’t die.

Nothing gets rendered on the server… The server is a console application with no UI and no Direct3D window…
