Question about using LOD groups in game engines....is each Level of Detail supposed to have its own armature rig/skeleton? When I use the LOD feature in CC3, it produces separate rigged characters, rather than one rig with separate submeshes. I always thought the different LODs were meshes that were attached to a single skeleton rig, so the rig stayed the same but the mesh changed based on camera distance.  Is this wrong?  If each LOD has its own armature, do I have to animate them each separately in the game engine?  Do I have to duplicate all of the colliders, and attach gameplay scripts to each rig, then code some system to tell which rig is being seen by the camera?
