      Yeah, so a few different uses for Python.

      Our tech artist also uses Blender mostly to check the other 3D artist's work to see if there's any sort of optimizations he can do with the meshes to see if he can save some data without compromising the visual quality.

      He will also use Blender to create these things called imposters.

      Suss.

      Here, look.

      And imposters are just like super, super low poly meshes that are swapped in in place of the more high quality meshes when things are in the distance.

      So, you know, they're super, super low quality, but they still kind of visually read as what the object is supposed to be when they're really far away.

      Saves a lot of performance.
