Inactivate if too far from window

[Nick]

"To save processing time, Multimedia Fusion 2 contains an option to stop the computation of the objects if they are too far from the display window. The object is not destroyed, but stops moving and reacting with collisions."

That is straight out of the MMF2 help file. The object is inactivated if "too far from the display window". How far is this? It would be good if there was a variable which could control this too, as usually i'd want the object to be inactivated as soon as it's off screen.

As far as I know, there is no way to adjust this feature.

i've been wondering about this too, and also for the "Destroy if too far" and any other settings that aren't defined

I personally prefer the inactive if too far away from window option off for everything, on TGF1 it was on for everything and there wasn't an option to change it, so thank you clickteam for giving this to us.

There a lot of features not mentioned in the manual and lot that are, it is important that we know somehow, whether it be in the manual, a tutorial, the help file or at this site.

I think I remember reading that someone had done a couple of tests and they had thought it was about 500px for the destroy option.
