I was always under the impression that when you placed a scenery object of the same type that it was already instanced by the sim (2020 & 2024)? This assumption was based off of what I have read in the SDK about the LOD Debug menu and how it provides a section to view the number of active instances.
- Instance Stats
This section, when expanded, shows the status for the different object instances being loaded and/or processed currently for the camera view.
Seeing that there is now an option in the Properties window to “Use Instancing” for a placed object, does this option handle things in a different way or has the sim automatically instancing placed objects just never been the case?
