The platform settings allow you to fine tune your region for each platform you want to publish to.
Space currently supports;
The default settings are designed to work for most regions.
Scene adjustment
Removing lightmaps and probes can significantly reduce download speed but will also impact on the runtime performance.

Ticking these boxes will prebake data before export. This improves loading performance but the region download will be bigger.

Occlusion data holds information about what areas are visible from other areas; it allows the viewer to make intelligent decisions about optimising a scene, however it can add several mb of size to both runtime memory use; and download size. Keeping it improves performance but can result in higher memory use in big scenes.
Navigation data is used for showing waypoints, and moving NPCs around in a scene; it uses a little bit of extra memory, and can be stripped out if you are under severe memory pressure.
Texture size reduction
All textures will be reduced to a maximum of the defined size for each build.
Reduces textures all by a multiple of the original, in line with Max texture reduction above.
So; if your scene contains large textures at 1024x1024 and you set the max texture reduction to 512 those large textures will be reduced by a factor of 4.
If you then set Texture reduction levels to 1, smaller textures in your scene will also be reduced by a factor of 4; so a 512x512 texture, which otherwise would have been unchanged by the Max texture reduction, would also be reduced by 4, to 256x256.
If you set the Texture reduction level to 2 it will multiply the Max texture reduction scale by 2; so in the case above reducing the smaller 512x512 texture by a factor of 8, to 64x64.
This will apply a further multiplicative reduction on normal maps on top of the reduction already applied by the Texture reduction level above.
Texture compression
Allows JPEG compression to be added to all textures in addition to DXT compression. This will degrade the quality of your images as the compression is lossy; but significantly reduces download filesize. It does not improve runtime memory size except during loading. Crunch level runs from 0 (very lossy) to 100 (lossless).
