Unity Scene Optimizer

Analyzes Unity scenes and provides performance optimization recommendations for rendering, physics, memory, and platform-specific concerns.

What This Skill Analyzes

1. Rendering Performance

Analyzes draw calls (target: <100 mobile, <2000 desktop), identifies batching opportunities, recommends material consolidation and static batching.

2. Texture Optimization

Reviews compression formats (BC7/ASTC), mipmap usage, texture atlasing, and platform-specific import settings.

3. GameObject Hierarchy

Targets: <500 GameObjects mobile, <2000 desktop. Identifies deep nesting, recommends object pooling and LOD groups.

4. Lighting and Shadows

Recommends baked lighting over realtime (1-2 lights mobile, 3-4 desktop), minimal shadow-casting lights.

5. Physics Optimization

Analyzes Rigidbody count, collider complexity, collision matrix configuration. Recommends simple colliders over Mesh colliders.

6. Mobile-Specific

Platform targets: 60 FPS iOS (iPhone 12+), 30-60 FPS Android. See mobile-checklist.md for complete requirements.

Optimization Workflow

• Measure: Frame Debugger, Stats, Profiler metrics

• Identify: GPU/CPU/Memory/Physics bottlenecks

• Apply: Quick wins (static batching, compression) → Medium (atlases, pooling, LOD) → Major (hierarchy refactor, culling)

• Validate: Compare before/after metrics

See optimization-workflow.md for detailed steps and timelines.

Platform-Specific Targets

Platform Draw Calls Triangles Texture Memory Lights

Mobile Low <50 <20k <100MB 1

Mobile Mid <100 <50k <250MB 1-2

Mobile High <150 <100k <500MB 2-3

PC Low <500 <200k <1GB 3-4

PC Mid <1000 <500k <2GB 4-6

PC High <2000 <1M <4GB 6-8

Console <1000 <800k <3GB 4-6
