Run agents in background to gain perfomance.

I would like to know if I can run for example 100 individuals, but just render the best of them, or a small group, in order to get better performance, since 100 3d simulations actually consume a lot of computacional power.

Thanks.

I’m not sure I understand what you’re trying to do. Can you elaborate on more details?
Are you talking about training or inference? Are they in the same scene or are you running multiple Unity build?

just render the best of them
Is it talking about camera rendering?

in order to get better performance
do you mean computation performance or training performance?

Well, sorry if this was confusing,

Actually, I was saying performance as generations per time when trainning, since when you render multiple environments, it takes longer to run that generation (NN operations are way faster then render ones).

Something such as run all the math in the background, but don’t render it, kinda running the “backend” but not the front end.

Yes you can speed up by not rendering the camera view.
In the editor you just turn off all the cameras. If you’re training using player build, you can specify --no-graphics in CLI.
