Tick Optimization Toolkit

Tick Optimization Toolkit optimizes ticks in actors, components, and timelines by reducing their frequency or disabling them with distance and visibility.

Tick Optimization Toolkit optimizes ticks in actors, components, and timelines by reducing their frequency or disabling them with distance and visibility. All the features are easily accessible from Blueprints. No C++ knowledge is needed.

No more need for spawning and despawning actors that would otherwise fit into memory. No more juggling of triggers and volumes that above all obfuscate your levels in the editor. With Tick Optimization Toolkit, you can gain precious milliseconds of game thread time with ease.

Current version 1.4.5
