Where exactly do you get slow downs?

Are you using hundreds of different entities or placing a lot of lights? This can slow you down.

fps is causing the slow down if you put less dynamic objects and less characters in a room it will run faster

spawn ennemies with triggerzones, so they arn't in the map when they don't have to.

Creativity is more important than knowledge.

avoid wide open spaces, connect different rooms with l- or u-shaped corridoors, use doors so the engine has less distances to render at any given time. large lightranges seem to slow down sometimes too, use (not to many) smaller lights instead.

I am Jacks complete lack of surprise.
