Any way to improve play test performance with playMaker window up?[SOLVED]

(1/1)

Eidrog:
Hello and thank you for your time!

When I run a play test with the playMaker window open I'm getting laggy performance in my game. I've got maybe 15 FSMs running in my scene. Most are triggers that are in a 'wait for Enter event' state, but are otherwise not doing anything.

When I close the playMaker window I get a smooth frame rate. Is there anything I can do to keep the playMaker window open, and get smooth frame rate during play tests? Can I turn off debugging, or any other options to improve performance?

Unity version: 2017.3.1.P4
playMaker version: 1.8.4

Thanks for the help! :)

The only way I can think of it happening is if you have an FSM open with a ton of states which just naturally slows down the editor. I usually try to break big FSMs into smaller ones for this reason and because its usually better for organization imo. If they're a bunch of small FSMs I dont see why it's happening.

Although maybe you're using OnTriggerStay? That could slow things down since it's pretty expensive.

Hi.
In the Preferences (bottom right in the playmaker editor) are some settings to improve performance.

Thanks for the help! I've tweaked my settings and now I'm getting smooth playback during games test! :)
