Thank you @player_03 ! I found the root cause of my problem. The same applies to using differ without second thought - I was under impression that circle collision will be some inlined distance check. I learned my lesson (for a while at least). With disabled hardware acceleration hxscout stuttered at 0.5FPS when profiling CPP (I think shitload of telemetry calls makes a difference,). Still, I’ll be migrating toward ECX from edge, as it’s under active development and already is much less memoryhungry than edge.
Thank you very much for insight!
