Question by joshua-lyness · May 07, 2015 at 11:54 AM · prefab prefabs size file filesize

file sizes of prefabs

If you make say, 10 prefabs called tree01, tree02, tree03 ... tree10, if you add the same mesh to each of them, do they each take up space? so if the mesh is 20kb, if I added it to all 10 prefabs, would it take up 200kb of space? Not sure if that makes sense, but anyhow, thanks :)

Usually the mesh would be somewhere in your project, in which case the prefab would just contain a reference to the mesh, not a copy of the actual mesh.

Unless you generate the mesh, add it to the prefab, and don't store it seperately in any way, in which case it's probably saved locally.
