Automatic region selection

By default, actors will choose the most optimal region based on the client's latency. This can be overridden if needed.

Region selection

The region an actor is created in can be overridden by defining create.region:

const actor = client.get({ name: "example" }, {
    create: {
        region: "atl"
    }
});
