: Items like the Rexmeck Helicopter became staples for chaotic sandbox scenarios.
BONELAB is built on the Marrow1 engine, a proprietary framework designed to simulate complex physical interactions. However, complex physics calculations require significant CPU overhead, leading to performance dips, particularly on standalone headsets like the Meta Quest 2 and Quest Pro.
