Interactable¶

What is an Interactable¶

An Interactable is an object that the player can interact with. It has an attached script that defines its behaviour. It can placed on its own or exist within a Prop or an Actor.

Example of an Interactable file:

{
    "name":"myinter",
    "onTouch":false,
    "props":{
        "newint":0,
        "x":0
    },
    "script":"scripts/test.lua"
}

Creating and editing an Interactable¶

To create an Interactable, you just need to give it a name.

Then you can edit its properties.

Display Name - Sets a friendly name that will show up only in the editor.
Script - Sets a Lua script that will define the Interactable’s behaviour. THe script must have an interact() function.
On Touch? - Whether this Interactable will trigger when the player collides with the interactable.

On top of that, you can add or remove your own properties for the Interactable.
