What causes less lag? .lua or .map

[callum123]

Say I have some mapping, is there any difference in FPS, draw distance, Lag etc... from converting a map file into createObject in lua?

Whats are the pro's and con's of each? Thanks.

As far as I know, map files are downloaded separately in the map download process. If you use them in a lua script file, it will load them via the script process instead. I don't think there's much of big differences - I have used both and I can't see any major differences.

Maps are much better compressed than LUA, and should be a fair bit faster to load.
