Some questions about Houdini Engine For Unity. I understand that Houdini digital assets are not live procedural/editable in game, only in editor. But I was wondering if they would export properly when building a game for iOS/Android etc? Do they need to be somehow baked into Unity geometry first, or are the assets automatically baked in their current state when building a game?
Second, I have seen tutorials using “collision_geo” group tag to create mesh collision geo for Unity. Are 2D collision types supported as well? Are there docs for Houdini Engine for Unity or Unreal (not the API docs)? I can't seem to find any official resources to learn what is and is not supported outside of a few videos, paid training, and random forum questions. Is Houdini Engine For Unity an official SESI supported product?
I would like to buy Houdini Indie to play with this if it works. Thanks for any help!
Houdini Engine, Unity, IOS/Android, documentation?

Thanks Olaf, actually this serves to highlight my question. Those are docs for Houdini Engine For Unreal, but there doesn't seem to be an equivalent one for Unity. I would assume the ‘group name’ workflow for collisions are the same or similar to Unity, but they are all 3D colliders.
I figured direct support for 2D colliders was a long shot, but having Houdini Engine assets in Unity supported on mobile platforms are somewhat of a deal breaker for buying Indie (at least in the very near term). Anyone else have info?
