    Hello,

    Is it possible to set up procedural "damaged" animations?

    For instance, if a skeleton in the idle animation is hit with a rigidbody sphere, could animation rigging be used in some way to generate a "reaction" of some sort to getting damaged in that location?

    As far as I know, most games will disable animations and use ragdolls for such effects. Is it possible to blend a ragdoll with an animation to achieve this? Or is there a better way?

    Animation rigging is useful in procedurally altering existing animations, it won't have much utility if your character is not animated. Seek to imagine a generic animation which to alter through a specific or general technique via animation rigging.

    yes it's possible, attach a rigidbody or a collider, to the source Target (example two bone IK), you generated a reaction, satisfying ?
