How much stuff

[nightglow]

How much stuff do you think you can put out without a frame rate drop?

Feels like the bamboo grass makes the frame rate drop and I wonder if it is because of its animation.

I have 2 bamboo grass sitting out and I haven't noticed a frame rate drop.

I play docked 99% of the time though. Undocked Switches (which includes the permanently undocked Lites) don't perform as well as docked. I also definitely don't have as much furniture sitting around as many of those 5* island tour videos I see on YouTube.

I have a pretty dense gym area and don't experience any lag even though there's a lot of stuff thrown into a small space

I find that when I place custom designs in conjunction with a lot of items I experience a frame rate drop in some places. In other places I may have more items but less custom designs and it doesn't happen there!

This question is unrelated to MiniPocketWorld's post, but how is that small green object on the left called?

That is really good to know!

Yeah I play on a switch lite.
Would a regular switch do better while undocked?

My FR drops like crazy near my "cafe" area and I think I only have a couple of furniture items out? I play in handheld mode so maybe that's why. My stall always has issues loading.

Huh, I’ve never noticed a frame rate drop around bamboo grass! I’ll have to test that lol

I have lots of items and have had a couple bamboo grass and no frame rate drop in handheld mode on either Switch or my former Switch Lite. But, aside from paths, I don't really have any custom items. Could it have to do with how many other games are on your Switch or your internet connection?

I only noticed frame rate drop when I put a two tier waterfall between my shopping area and cemetery. I changed it to 1 tier with a fence at the top and moved some of the furniture in my shopping district and it does fine now. I hate that there is such a thin line between lagging and not lagging.

i've only experienced frames dropping when being around a lot of flowers (as in, half my island was flowers lol)

 

[sunnibunniva]

I play undocked 99% of the time and mainly notice frame drops on dream islands around custom patterns on the ground and a loooottt of flowers.. 1 bamboo grass definitely isn't the problem, but might just be enough for it to be noticeable when placed around other stuff

I have the original switch and I always experience some lag in one of my dense areas. Just depends on which Switch you have and how much stuff you have in one space.

I also get lag sometimes but that is on someone else island
