InstancedBufferGeometry: maxInstancedCount property

See original GitHub issue

The maxInstancedCount property is poorly-named, IMO.

I suggest that the property be renamed to .instanceDrawCount, which specifies the number of instances to render. That is how the property is being used.

Also, the renderer should silently ensure the draw count does not exceed the maximum possible, based on the buffer size – as we currently do with BufferGeometry.drawRange.

I would make it a mandatory parameter similar to InstancedMesh.

OK. Does #11209 have any bearing on this issue?

Do you think .count should be initialized to Infinity, as is .drawRange.count?
