Though I've only tested this on Sierra on a 2012 15" rMBP, so if you run into any issues, let me know! This is the first script I've written that's meaningfully useful. It's free and open source and should not require anything extra (runs on the python that comes with Mac OS). Check out ForceNap if you are brave or wait a few more days or until it is stable. Introducing MyAppNap, just fire up Terminal, type 'python myAppNap.py Unity' and it will suspend that app when it is not in focus and resume it once it is. So I did some searching and cobbled together enough bits from StackOverflow to make my own app nap script. But Unity (along with many apps) does not support it.
That's the feature that suspends the app when it is not in use (or something like that).
#Gfxcardstatus integrated only code
I could just shut down Unity when I'm not using it, but then I am less likely to test my code and iterate.īut as I was looking at the Energy tab in Activity Monitor, I saw this column: App Nap. Now most of the time (2/3rds? 3/4ths?) I am just coding, so Unity is running in the background chewing up battery for no reason.
I like to develop in Unity/VS Code on the couch/on the go and even with a brand new battery, my 6 year old mbp only gets ~2 hours (I can get 5-6 if I only code) even with gfxCardStatus set to Integrated Only.
