It clearly can be seen that game is lagging. Though it's very good video Smile

The game is lagging REALLY badly, but I suspect it is due to the pathfinding, not the graphics.

I just put down 84... just kind of arbitrary. behind each of those doors is just a long dead-end hallway that's filled with inactive grunts. When those hallways were full, I had 84 grunts.

For a serious mod, I'd recommend no more than 10 at one time. Maybe even fewer than this because as I've said above, I think the lag was mainly caused by the pathfinding having to run through 84 grunts, not just the graphics. For a serious mod, it may have to sift through even more path nodes than the few in this short video, so maybe even 10 would be pushing it for a serious effort in what I assume would be a much larger level.
