| Summary | 0018161: Large Ability Point Drops are too resource intensive | ||||
| Description | I've been trying to create a Minion producing Boss and ran into this difficulty. When an enemy dies in a room rewarding the player with a large amount of ability points (e.g., the 100-500+ ability points), I'm getting massive slow downs. This is especially a problem if multiple ships are destroyed within a short period of time. For small ability point drops this isn't (much) of an issue. I would guess that having each ship drop a single Ability Point object (of the appropriate value) would remove this problem. Files attached to generate behavior. Enemy ships that drop 100 ability point definition. Test Chamber that spawns said ships. | ||||
