Discussion Corgi Async Raycasts - Move your raycasts off of the main thread! [Released!]

Corgi Async Raycasts allow you to easily leverage Unity's built in Jobified raycasts system. It provides an extremely simple to use API for moving your raycasts off of the main thread.

~Documentation~
~Asset Store~
~Discord~



Features:
* Simple to setup and easy to use. Drop in a prefab and the API is ready to use!
* VERY fast and provides an alternative API which is a bit slower but even easier to use.
* Works on all platforms Unity supports!
* Includes a simple demo scene to explain the API!
* Includes full source code!

 

It's finally live!

 

First update is live.

 

Hey @funkyCoty

Once again a great asset!

Do you have any idea why I'm not seeing a difference in performance?
I'm using 50000 cubes and am getting around 5-7fps with all three methods.

I added:

Code (CSharp):

1.        
2. private void OnRaycastHit(RaycastHit hitInfo)
3. {
4.             return;
5. ...
6.  

in DemoCubeRaycastGround.cs - so the cube doesn't actually move and I also remove the Rotation of the whole Circle.

It would be interesting to have a pure benchmark Scene to see the actual performance difference.

Thanks

 

Can you post profiler results? getting 5 fps with 50,000 cubes.. you might just be bottlenecked by cube rendering lol. Also, as the documentation suggests you should avoid that API in particular, use the one that gives tickets and it'll be faster overall
