I’m nearly certain that you are wrong about what is the performance sink, I’d love to see any profiling numbers or numbers from when you turned off those things you think are the performance sinks.

I’ve done my own profiling and turning off gameplay features, I posted a link very recently:

Urchin-Issue (lots of floating organelles cause lag)

I don’t think that rendering is the bottleneck at all. You can see my profiling results here: Note especially what things I’ve tried disabling and gotten basically no performance change with them: I’ve tried disabling AI, rendering microbe graphics other than the player, and disabling microbe sound. Those have no impact on the performance. It seems that around 30% of total time is taken up by physics and Godot scene tree updates, with 10% being our C# physics callbacks.
