Threading so we don't take the convo too far in main chat. It's fine if it's not really the packed level actor gets scattered but its contents right? Changes would be reflected if you change something within PLA. After all they are just instanced meshes as I see it.

Yeah i imagine it would be okay, What would take place in the outliner? It would just be scattering the instances right?

Just a scatter instancer like usual.

My thought process on scatting the PLA's was using dash to create PLA's, shelves populated with stuff etc Tables, usual set dressing things

as i see it, its fine. Will squeeze it in for Jan release.

I feel like it could speed stuff up xD Rather than just creating a ton of new Static meshes from scatters On large scope things it should help with the amount of unique draws

Well what you could do now is make your stuff in blueprints and scatter that. You can convert selections to blueprints easily.

I used to use blueprints, But switched in 5 xD I'm still a ways away from set dressing, Just planning ahead. Being able to use the PLA's as surfaces is huge though.

The physics paint tool is wild btw, Extremely useful tool. Much better than my old one

:^) if you use it make sure to give feedback! Definitely need it. Few fixes on the way already. A few features for it and a smaller optimization pass is planned for Jan as well.

Once i get through this last push on assembling all the different variations of a few different building sets ill be looking more into the finer details and pumping the extra detail in. Small team life, so naturally im swamped I'll definitely share some of my work in here and a bit of my workflow when these areas are fleshed out more.
