Set target frame rate in Unity

To avoid causing your server to use 100% of your CPU, the recommended best practice is to set the target frame rate for a Unity server. To set the target frame rate, add the following code into your server build: C# 
using System.Collections;using System.Collections.Generic;using UnityEngine;public class TargetFPS : MonoBehaviour{    public int target = 60;    void Awake()    {        QualitySettings.vSyncCount = 0;        Application.targetFrameRate = target;    }}
