Essentials Series/Links: Difference between revisions

Please take a look at the [[Asset#Classes of Assets|Classes of Assets]] page. We're concerned about two basic groups of assets, namely Base (which we sometimes call Object assets) and Entity (which we sometimes call Placeable assets). The [[../Editing Assets/#Asset Data Editor|Asset Data Editor]] for Base assets has all the properties detailed for Base assets in that page, same for the Entity assets. All Entity assets are also Base assets (so they have everything Base has), and all of these assets can create [[#Links|Links]] to each other. Industrial Park automatically sets the AssetID and AssetType fields for base assets, so you don't have to worry about them. Common base assets are [[../Counters/]], [[../Timers/]], [[../Dispatchers/]] and [[../Conditionals/]], and common entity assets are [[../SIMPsSimple Objects/]], [[../Platforms/]], [[../Buttons/]], [[../Boulders/]] and [[../User Interfaces/]]. Note that having a 3D position in the world does not automatically mean the asset is an entity; [[../Sound Effects/]] and [[../Cameras/]] have positions but are only Base, and Markers have positions but are not even Base!
