There's a level of detail implementation, that implies no interpolation, but that could be useful to assign on rendertime, different cdl files for agents depending on their distance to camera.

In this specific example, agents of type A closer than 1350 will stay with the original cdl file, agents farther than
1350 but closer than 1500 will go with the LOD_1_TYPE_1 specified cdl, and so on.
Detail levels must start at 1, can go as high as you want, and must be paired with a distance limit and an OUT for pairing on multiple agent scenarios.
There's an auto limit planned, but still under developement.
