    I am running into some issues since SkinnedMeshRenderers cannot be batched, and my animated units are all using SkinnedMeshRenderers.

    I am building an RTS where up to 1000 units can be on screen at once. Is there any smart way to deal with this so that rendering doesnt take up 30-40% of my CPU.

    Okay. So I guess your game, has alot of humanoid characters with bones.

    Question: Are you using ragdoll physics, for each individual character? Because if you are, then that might use up alot of cpu processing.
