How to do FPS and CPU optimized script?

[Efsane]

Hello guys, I am Efsane (Legend).

What I'm curious about is as I wrote in the title, but let me open it to you a little bit. In client-side or server-side scripts in MTA, sometimes rendered things decrease fps and increase cpu. I think you understand my example. What I'm wondering is how to write optimized systems without dropping fps and increasing cpu? Even if the server draws 250-300 people, the cpu value of the script should be 3

That question can only be answered if you know why the FPS is dropping. And there are multiple reasons for.

 

A common reason:

Execution time exceeds the frame time

• 1000 / 60 max fps = 16,66666666666667 = frame time

• local timeNow = getTickCount()
  
  for i=1, 10000 do 
  end
  
  outputChatBox(getTickCount() - timeNow) -- execution time

   

So even if your computer can run the game at 60 fps, if the execution time takes longer than the frame time the next frame has to wait longer and so your pc will render less frames each second.

 

And how to optimise that? Well, making sure that this does not happen with the total execution time of all render events, as (not so) simple as that.

By setting priority for 2 addEventHandlers that are attached to render events, 1 super high priority and 1 super low priority, you probably will be able to calculate the total execution time for that event.

addEventHandler( "onClientRender", root, ..., false, "high+1000" )

addEventHandler( "onClientRender", root, ..., false, "low-1000" )
