#

they're probably shooting a ray every frame

#

and

#

if it hits

#

it'll bounce off based on the normal

#

which is why it glides around the enemy like a ball instead of standing still

#

rocky spoke they're probably shooting a ray every frame

Surely unoptimized?

rocky spoke Feb 5, 2026, 1:55 AM

#

do you not know how optimized rays are

#

💔

yes

ember raft Surely unoptimized?

you can easily shoot thousands per frame with no-maybe a tiny bit of stutter if you have a really really old gpu

ember raft Feb 5, 2026, 1:57 AM

#

rocky spoke do you not know how optimized rays are

I do not

#

how do you think raytracing works in other games you play outside of roblox? obviously they implement some extra optimization but it really doesn't change the main concept

#

ray optimization is directly affected by currently visible geometry

#

the more parts you have rendering in your viewport the more heavy a ray impacts performance

i mean

#

probably yeah

ember raft Feb 5, 2026, 1:58 AM

#

Makes sense gotcha

rocky spoke Feb 5, 2026, 1:58 AM

#

heartbeat is based on physics step

#

renderstepped is based on frame

#

which will give more accuracy

#

renderstepped and stepped are the same thing btw

#

false

#

heartbeat is per physics step

#

30hz

#

from what i remember its either 30 or 60hz

ember raft Feb 5, 2026, 2:00 AM

#

rocky spoke heartbeat is per physics step

Heartbeat is physics yes

#

Stepped and RenderStepped I believe are not the same

rocky spoke Feb 5, 2026, 2:00 AM

#

they are

#

stepped runs on older technology

#

but you get the same result nonetheless

ember raft Feb 5, 2026, 2:01 AM

#

rocky spoke stepped runs on older technology

So they are not the same lol

rocky spoke Feb 5, 2026, 2:01 AM

#

they are because the result is the same

ember raft Feb 5, 2026, 2:01 AM

#

Same argument for wait and task.wait in that case…

rocky spoke Feb 5, 2026, 2:01 AM

#

not really

#

task.wait has more optimizations

ember raft Feb 5, 2026, 2:01 AM

#

Well yeah one uses the task scheduler

rocky spoke Feb 5, 2026, 2:01 AM

#

yeah

ember raft Feb 5, 2026, 2:01 AM

#

But still same result

#

One just uses older technology

#

…

rocky spoke Feb 5, 2026, 2:02 AM

#

im p sure stepped also has runtime as the first paramater instead of dt

#

its like runtime, deltatime

#

instead of deltatime

#

#

#

very very negligible

#

@cunning needle figured it out?
