====== Static Batching ======

* See ''StaticBatchingUtility.Combine'' to batch meshes at runtime.

Static Batching in Unity creates a Read-Only mesh named "Combined Mesh (root: <root-game-object>)", with a [[Submesh]] for each batched renderer. Unity invokes a separate draw call for each range of indices within the combined mesh buffer.

Note that this means Unity does not actually render the entire batch in a single draw call. As they [[https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/StaticBatchingUtility.html|mention]], truly merging all meshes would make culling vastly less effective.

Instead, the performance comes from issuing fewer material / mesh change state operations (in OpenGL at least). In a lot of ways, this ends up being more similar to SRP [[Dynamic Batching]].

===== Baking Lightmap UV Coordinates =====

The lightmap coordinates from LightingDataAsset are baked into the Combined Mesh UV coordinates when the 
scene loads((I think this also happens during standalone build, not during standalone runtime, but I'm not sure)). Afterwards, querying ''meshRenderer.lightmapScaleOffset'' *will* return the old scale and transform, even though it has been baked into the mesh. Technically, in the render pipeline, all of these meshes have a lightmapST (scale/transform) of '(1,1,0,0)'. ((It shows the scale and transform it loaded from the LightingDataAsset file for that renderer.))
