In this video, I’ll walk you through how to use Godot’s profiler to locate performance bottlenecks so you can optimize your game properly.
I’ve created this simple little voxel terrain, but as soon as I load the project and start moving around, it's obvious something's off.
The project takes forever to load and despite the world being fairly empty, it is slow and lagging a lot.
Let's explore Godot's profiler using this voxel terrain as a use case.
I’m currently using Godot 4.4 beta 3, but I’ll keep updating whenever a new version of Godot comes out.
During this series we will touch upon several interesting topics including procedural generation, profiling and optimizing, comparing solutions, multithreading and much more.
