It’s not a problem, it’s actually a very useful feature called **frustum culling**. It’s the recommended way to render objects efficiently.

If you don’t want to use it, you can turn it off by setting `use_frustum = false` on this line:

However, disabling it may lead to performance issues that you’ll need to address yourself.

Other render scripts actually **have** to implement this feature.
