Abstract
Aspects of the subject technology provide for system state management in a centralized rendering environment. A system may initialize a tree structure for a three-dimensional environment. The system renders the three-dimensional environment based at least in part on a traversal of the tree structure. The system identifies a request to change first or second visual states. The system can determine a first state update to the first visual state and a second state update to the second visual state and updates the tree structure by passing, by a first node, the first state update to a first child node and separately passing the second state update to a second child node. The system re-renders the three-dimensional environment based at least in part on a traversal of the updated tree structure.
