PCG in action
For a more effective comparison between ISM and HISM, let’s execute the same example using the PCG tool. As you can see, the rock formation is significantly larger, generating approximately 250,000 rocks. However, the underlying code is notably simpler and highly optimized.
Figure 1.10 – A great example of the power of PCG, which generates 10 times more rocks without a heavy performance load
The following graph is all that’s needed to produce the preceding result:
Figure 1.11 – PCG requires few nodes to produce simple results
Clear and straightforward blueprint code has been incorporated into the PCG graph. This pinpoints the nodes that produce the desired results. Remember that PCG is still relying on using HISM or ISM components, but it breaks it down in a more organized and optimized manner.
Here is the performance status for our rock formation, which was running only on PCG Volume...
