MultiMeshInstance2D
Inherits: Node2D < CanvasItem < Node < Object
Node that instances a MultiMesh in 2D.
Description
MultiMeshInstance2D is a specialized node to instance a MultiMesh resource in 2D. This can be faster to render compared to displaying many Sprite2D nodes with large transparent areas, especially if the nodes take up a lot of space on screen at high viewport resolutions. This is because using a mesh designed to fit the sprites' opaque areas will reduce GPU fill rate utilization (at the cost of increased vertex processing utilization).
Usage is the same as MultiMeshInstance3D.
