[HELP] Tips for creating a good system.

[Mature]

Hello community, as some already know, I am developing a server that involves a lot of appearance and information, and I would like some code tips that I should avoid and some tips, because I don't have much experience and doubt, Dx starts to give a problem until Score? I'm looking to create a chat box in dx, but I'm not sure if it can affect performance ... But I appreciate your help.

RenderTargets can be used to create boxes, which can act as an mask so that only a little part can be visible and the rest gets cut-off.

If you are going to work with renderTargets try to prevent doing re-drawing inside of the renderTarget. Only re-draw when you actually made changes. Sometimes using multiple renderTargets can also reduce re-drawing times. (For example if you have drawn 20x text which is already drawn inside of another renderTarget)

Capturing the pixels inside of the renderTarget is a very CPU intensive process.

 

For the rest there is not much you have to worry about.
