Captain of Industry – Captain's Diary #56: How we made products rendering 20× faster

Summary

Welcome everyone to today's edition of Captain's diary. I am Captain Marek and today I will be talking about some serious performance improvements we've done over the past few months. Are you ready for 20x faster products rendering?
Before that, I have an important announcement. Update 4.2 is nearly finished and will be released on the 20th of July! The key new features to look forward to are:

• An in-game COI Hub integration for mods, maps, and blueprints.
• Universal wagons for trains that can carry all 3 major types of cargo.
• More train track pieces like 2-tile s-bends or grade changes.
• Train waypoints with allow/deny options.
• Ability for trains to autonomously go forward and reverse on bi-directional tracks if that's the shortest path.
• New statistics for all products showing detailed usage breakdown.
• Performance optimizations described in today's diary.
• And more!
