Description

We need to figure out how many users we can have in a world with our current networking limitations and avatar rendering techniques. Ideally this is somewhere around ~20 participants should we prevent sending audio at all times, default users to muted, force PTT, etc. Avatar rendering is likely going to be fine if we can minimize the number of unique avatars and their polygon count / material cost.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by measuring participant capacity with the current networking limitations, audio behavior, and avatar rendering costs, including the proposed muted or push-to-talk options. Done means documenting a supported participant limit and the conditions needed to reach it, including avatar and audio constraints.
