If there are N values in the ranges array, the LOD group should have N+1 children.
Specifying too few children will result in the last child being used repeatedly for the lowest levels of detail;
if too many children are specified, the extra children will be ignored.
Each value in the range array should be less than the previous value, otherwise results are undefined.
