Lighting can push your scene off a frame-time cliff before anyone notices why. You add more lights, visuals improve, and suddenly performance becomes a firefighting loop.
This training shows you where classic Forward in URP hits limits, including the 8-lights-per-object ceiling, and how Forward+ changes the game by clustering lights for the fragment stage. You also compare this against deferred tradeoffs, especially the memory-bandwidth cost that can hurt mobile targets.
Concrete next step: take one light-heavy scene, profile Forward versus Forward+, and compare render behavior, light handling, and CPU/GPU cost before locking your pipeline choice.
CEO/Producer translation: this prevents lighting polish from becoming an expensive late milestone risk.
