in Actor LoadModel , what is the use of copy=1

Scripting Issues
1

in api it’s said
If copy is set to 0, do a lodModelOnce instead of a loadModelCopy.

Is model Copy interresiting if i’m loading a full array of identical actor
(but they will play different animation at the same time)
?

thanks in advance

I think you always want to let copy = 1 be the default value. This causes the actor to load the model and copy its vertices as necessary to allow different Actors to play different animations.

If you set copy = 0, you may run into trouble if you have more than one Actor on the same model. And there’s no real reason to set this even if you only have one Actor.
