11 months ago We definitely want to add some form of occlusion culling, but this is a pretty big feature and won't likely happen until we switch to a our own rendering engine, as we'd have to implement solution for Unity and then re-implement this feature again with the new engine.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently everything within the camera frustum is rendered, regardless of whether it's visible or not. This is a clear unnecessary drain on resources and further degrades rendering performance.
Describe the solution you'd like
Baked occlusion culling would allow objects that aren't visible (i.e. occluded by other objects) to not be rendered, potentially drastically improving rendering performance.
Describe alternatives you've considered
While frustum culling exists, this only covers what's not in front of you. Likewise you can employ a manual culling system, but this has it's own issues (and in Resonite would require disabling entire chunks of the hierarchy unless you performed some insane manual renderer visibility assignments) and just isn't granular enough.
