Maybe. My understanding is they have a very minor impact on performance. Line of sight I think is still number 1, by a lot, although that’s been improved greatly recently. Temperature is also somewhat bad. Both of these have fairly large gameplay impacts.
The data connected to a unit doesn’t really hurt performance. It could fill up RAM if it were enormous, but the way I think the data is layed out in memory makes it very efficient to utilize. If you’re performing an action on a unit anyway you’ve got to bring their data into RAM, and it’s all grouped together so it’s one big chunk of data that gets pulled in together and can be operated on.
