Looks impressive, especially the reduced friction for artists. The demo hints at several shortcomings of the engine, though, especially the nanite componet. Stepping through the feature highlight (whatever the youtube compression lets through), during dense scenes geometry often gets washed out, looking less detailed then an authored model would probably look. Hard edges often appear fuzzy, and the fuzziness is not temporally stable.

That would be defining it as a time span and using the time since start as index.

Which to me is one step away from using the timepoint as the index iteself (zero as start), verus (1 year from zero).

How would you index the time before the first birthday?
