Feature idea: hierarchy empty objects #28

It would be great if Blender collections translated to empty object in Unity, cloning the exact same hierarchy from Blender to Unity: we would avoid reorganizing once again the objects in Unity. I don't know if such feature is possible to add, but I try to ask for it anyway. Great job so far, keep going!

Not doable. Collections in Blender are very different from hierarchies. Hierarchies inherit position, scale, etc while collections are a way to organize the objects in Blender, regardless the hierarchy they belong to. For example, you may have objects belonging to a same hierarchy in different collections. You may enable/disable/view/hide these collections, but the transforms of the objects are still inherited from their common hierarchy.
