What it does
Changes how many vehicles and traffic agents are simulated. It is mainly a CPU and simulation setting.
Games may also call it: Vehicle Density, Traffic Amount, Car Density
Decision guide
Lower it when
Lower it when busy scenes hurt 1% lows, CPU frame time is high, or the GPU is not fully used.
Keep it high when
Keep it higher when the effect supports the art direction and performance remains stable.
Handheld advice
On handhelds, test this in the busiest area rather than an empty scene; CPU-heavy options often show up in 1% lows before average FPS.
Restart
Usually not required
Some games still apply changes only after reloading a scene or restarting.
Do not overread the meter
It is mainly a CPU and simulation setting. This score is an editorial cross-game estimate, not a measured result for every engine.
