In this episode I'll be explaining a few things about culling techniques.

Godot 3.x has limited support for automatic culling, something that is going to be rectified in Godot 4 but for which we'll need to implement our own solution for the time being.

I'll show how to implement a simple system that shows and hides rooms depending on player position in order to minimize rendering assets that are not in view
