Community notes
As of A3 1,62.134494 running hideObjectGlobal in big loop may cause some objects not to be hidden for a players already connected or passed JIP. To avoid players rendering desync consider running that in preInit schedule of a server.
In A3 1.72.142342 when you hide object via hideObjectGlobal, model sounds still be audible. For e.g. if you delete apex house from map, you still hear a conditioner sound at this spot
Eventhandlers such as "explosion" will work on hidden objects
