is it expensive to create new tweens on every frame periodically? | Godot Café | Page 1

I'm creating tweens to move an object smoothly whilst holding a key, but I wonder if lerp could be used instead and might be more performant?

I don't think it makes sense to create tweens every frame for movement. There are better ways

Best method for smooth motion, imo:

velocity += (targetvelocity - velocity) * friction

Where friction is a float from 0 to 1; 0 being no change in velocity at all, and 1 being full instant change.
