1. A computer-implemented method for meshing a plurality of objects comprising:
determining a priority level for each object in the plurality of objects based on whether that object includes a dirty model condition within or between that object and another object of the plurality of objects, wherein an object with a dirty model condition has a higher priority and a separate object without the dirty model condition has a lower priority; and
meshing each of the plurality of objects in sequence according to the priority level of each object, wherein the object having a higher priority is meshed prior to the separate object having the lower priority.
