I have a simple 2D top down shooter with a static tower constantly shooting at me every 1.0 seconds. The bullit is a rigid body with a sprite and collision shape attached. On the bullet itself is also a script destroying the bullet after 5.0 sec. While playing everything works fine with 60fps until the first bullet starts to destroy itself. Suddenly the framerate drops down to 5 fps and gets back up after a view seconds.

I tried to find out what causes this issue: colliders and reducing the life of the bullets did not help. So far I got like up to 15 different bullets at highest. I can not believe that that amount of rigid bodies is already too much, is it?

Does this happen only when the first bullet is destroyed or when any bullet is destroyed?

It starts with the destruction of the first bullets and goes on for quite a while till it gets better again. As far as I can tell the exact amount of bullets is not crucial for this to happen.

If you alter the position of the bullets directly (e.g. position += something) try switching them to a kinematic body and make sure to set the position inside physics_process
