This is very important if you want to remove external layout when is not need in certain point of the game, this will improve performance a lot and allow creators to make larger size maps

How do you know how much it will improve performance?
AFAIK, objects not displayed don’t impact performance. :man_shrugging:

I think it can be done with event sheet.

This would need a change to the way external layouts work. right now, they are nothing more than a list of object names with positions, rotations etc to spawn them at. We would need a system to mark an object as being from a layout, or make them layers or object to be able to control it efficiently.

It actually it does i have done much testing on it. The difference is only noticeable if you have a very large level with more than 5K objects
