Learn the creation workflow for Ragdolls in Unity, how to toggle between an Animator and Ragdoll, and think through some optimization ideas when you have a large number of potential ragdolls in your game!

Ragdolls are a hugely popular mechanic in games that add, usually a funny mechanic into your game. What they always do though, is allow you to have models go limp and flop around procedurally!

While the tool we look at for autoattaching Colliders, Rigidbodies, and CharacterJoints to the Transform "bones" of our 3d model, you can manually add these and have any model go into a Ragdoll by following the same process we followed to set up the hands and feet!
