Defines the Owner of this component as well as the role (i.e. 'slot') that this component fulfills.

Custom rendering logic

Disables an entity and its scripted or diagrammed interactivity, if it is currently enabled.

Gets the default saving mode

For objects that use it, this will point to the Design Object used to represent/manipulate this object.

Triggered anytime SceneObject Visibility is changed.

If object IsGrounded, this is the distance from Ground that it will fall to (sometimes there is an offset).

Gets or sets fog settings for this renderable.

Returns list of lights affecting this scene object. In case if IsLit is false, returns empty list. If a private light list was specified, returns it. Otherwise, returns a list of lights updated from time to time (either on light's or object's movement)

Returns the height at which this object thinks of "grounded" (for objects that float, this might be a bit above the actual ground level, and for objects that naturally submerge, such as trees, this will be below the actual ground level). If Object is not-in-scene, then it always returns 0.

Returns an emission count based on time or distance.

Returns geometry data to render this scene object. Fill in VertexData (and optionally PrimitiveType and IndexData) with references to the vertex/index buffer. Leave VertexData null to not render anything. Default implementation does not provide any renderable geometry.

Determines intersection between the Ray and this SceneObject. Default logic models scene object as simple BoundingBox. Override this for custom logic.

Returns a copy of private light list or null if there's no private lights assignment.

Retrieve IRenderable objects to render from this SceneObject, method is called for visible SceneObjects. Default implementation checks IsRenderable flag and adds this SceneObject to result list if true.

Indicates if object does not really have an 'Orientation' in the scene.

Indicates if object does not really have a 'Position' in the scene.

Indicates if object does not really have a 'spatial state' in the scene (i.e. no real position or orientation). Setting to 'true' means it ignore BOTH Position and Orientation. Setting to 'false' means it cares about BOTH.

Gets/Sets the initial animation stage (0..1) of particles emitted. Only affects on particles of SpriteAnimated type.

Initializes the asset so that it might be prepared for use. By default, PrepareForUse() is called from this method as well.

Gets/sets initial orientation of particle. Doesn't affect on particles of Facing type.

Returns true if the SceneObject is not null, is Active, and is not disposed or about to be disposed of/deactivated.

Returns true if the SceneObject is not null, is Active, and is not disposed or about to be disposed of/deactivated, and, if ensureNotShuttingDown is true, this ensures it will not be soon disposed because engine is shutting down

Indicates that this sceneObject is of type T and has any not null parent equals to specified one.

Gets or sets whether or not to display the bounding box for this node.

Gets/sets flag indicate that object is clipped by camera frustrum. In case if this property is set to false, frustrum clipping is not performed.

Indicates if resource has been disposed.

Indicates if resource is in process of Disposing but not fully disposed.

Gets/sets continuous emission mode - particles are spawned without interruption.

Get/sets flag indicate that particles will be spawned at distance basis instead of time basis. If set to true, EmissionRate has different meaning - measured in number of particles per world unit instead of number per second. Default is false.

Turns emission ON/OFF. Default is true.

Gets/sets periodic emission mode - controlled by EmissionPeriodDelay and EmissionPeriodDuration.

Gets or sets whether the fog is overridden from the scene's fog settings.

Gets/sets particle instant emission mode - all emission occurs instantly. If not, then emission happens gradually over time, as expected.

Indicates if this object has gravity and falls to the ground (or to it's assigned "DistanceFromGround").

Gets if this entity is currently in an initialized (and non-disposed) state.

Returns true if given scene object contains in same scene where this scene object is. Kludge method, because Scene property is unreliable (it's assigned to World.Scene in SceneObject constructor).

Gets if this object is ready for use, not disposed or disposing, active and in a scene

Gets/sets if asset is ready to be used. Can be set to 'true' in class constructor in order to skip Preparation logic.

Gets/sets type of interaction with reflective surfaces (i.e. water) for this scene object.

Gets/sets type of interaction with refracting surfaces (i.e. water) for this scene object.

Indicates if the component is to be Saved when the owning context is saved (e.g. for components in your scene, this controls whether or not they are saved to the scene file when the scene is saved). Typically objects are 'Saved', unless they are transient to be programmatically created each time.

Indicates if Entity is Selectable.

Indicates if object is a "system object" or "low-level internal object" -- usually not shown or saved, but used for implementation Example: the RootScreenNode.

Indicates if Entity can be focused (controlled by the user).

Gets/sets object visibility when camera is under water. Note that it only refers to underwater visibility, not a visibility on water plane (which is defined by IsReflectionAllowed and IsRefractionAllowed flags). Default is true.

Temporary Field - to be replaced by string-based flag value. Indicates if object is within visible range of MainCamera.

Gets/sets position of emitter where it was at previous emission. Used for distance-based emitters

Gets/Sets a reference to the material of scene object. Will return Library.Materials.DefaultMaterial if material was not assigned yet.

Encapsulates the Dynamic properties of this body.

Attempts to prepare asset for use. To be sure, check "IsReadyForUse" after calling this method to ensure it's really ready for use before using it.

This method is invoked just before rendering the object. Implement this method to perform pending buffer updates, switch between LOD levels for context.Camera etc. Default SceneObject implementation does nothing.

Gets the prototype this instance or prototype was created from and inherits components and settings from.

Called from 'Activate()' method, or can be called manually. Should initialize custom state of the Activity. Note, that if the Activity is currently executing, this should have no effect upon the current Activity state.

Set DistanceFromGround to value that will place WorldBoundingBoxBottom in contact with ground. NOTE: Assumes object does not have any special considerations re point to bring in contact with ground.

Resets all temporary and accumulated data to default values. From now emitter begins counting new emission period, if periodical emission is used.

Resets all temporary and accumulated data to default values. From now emitter begins counting new emission period, if periodical emission is used.
