Faster repeat method than while true do?
I have programmed a world generator and
while true do wait () end
already generates too much delay and ensures that the world is generated very slowly

You don't need to wait() after every iteration. You can do 10, 20, even 100 at a time without any problems. Just make sure it does eventually wait or it will hang. ee0w 458 — 6y

Use a hearbeat wait? xPolarium 1388 — 6y

Loading in chunks is definitely the way to go for this. xPolarium 1388 — 6y

Absolutely chunks imo if your doing any kind of terrain generator ABK2017 406 — 6y

Unless you mean just the loading, in which case you can look into Network StreamingEnabled but read up on it because it effects a lot in local scripts ABK2017 406 — 6y

Take a look at RunService's Events => https://www.robloxdev.com/api-reference/class/RunService. And indeed, the above user''s suggestions are highly recommended. Nevertheless, the answer to your question can be found in RunService's Events; Stepped, Heatbeat or RenderStepped Zafirua 1348 — 6y

A "faster" method without a wait will crash the server if it's a infinite loop. angeI1001 123 — 6y

local amount = 0 local MaxAmount = 20 -- 10,20,100 while true do if amount+1 > MaxAmount then amount = 0 wait() -- Set Amount return end amount = amount+1 if amount == MaxAmount then amount = 0 wait() -- Set amount return end -- Do rest end

cool. I once did this accidentally with it going 1000 times before wait () and my frames per second went down to like 1/2 but it didn't hang. Really annoying. OBenjOne 190 — 6y
