hmmmm.... that puts me at square one again. Well, I'm learning ^_^ so its actually faster the way I have it right now...
The body instances right now are things like individual tiles etc or segments of a wall, putting together tho room much like one would with sprites. I guess it makes sense a bit as to why performance gets better as less Body instances are visible. Another idea: Would it be a good idea to make a custom body class that passes on things like advance time? the background isn't supposed to move at all, so if theres calculations that will happen anyway, maybe I should strip that off... Also, I'm not convinced its the poly count thats causing this. The problems are indiscriminate of how nice the machine of use is, and my models are fairly simple.
