🏠 StaticMesh

A StaticMesh entity represents a Mesh which can be spawned in the world, can't move and is more optimized for using in decorating the world.

---

💂Authority

This class can be spawned on both 🟧 Client and 🟦 Server side (if you spawn it on client, it won't be synchronized with other players).

👪Inheritance

This class shares methods and events from Base Entity, Base Actor, Base Paintable.

🧑‍💻API Source

This page is auto-generated! The Functions, Properties and Events described here are defined in our GitHub's API Repository! Feel free to commit suggestions and changes to the source .json API files!

---

Static Meshes are like Props, but with fewer interaction options. Static Meshes are aimed to offer better performance on spawning Static "objects" in the world than Props.

tip

Automatically all StaticMeshActors present in the Level will be loaded as a StaticMesh entity in the client side.
