Property Descriptions

int max_fps = 0

• void set_max_fps ( int value )

• int get_max_fps ( )

The maximum number of frames per second that can be rendered. A value of 0 means "no limit". The actual number of frames per second may still be below this value if the CPU or GPU cannot keep up with the project logic and rendering.

Limiting the FPS can be useful to reduce system power consumption, which reduces heat and noise emissions (and improves battery life on mobile devices).
