📦 Prop

A Prop represents a Dynamic Mesh which can be spawned in the world, can be grabbed around by characters and have physics.


💂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.

🎒 Examples

local my_prop = Prop(
Vector(-900, 185, 215),
Rotator(0, 90, 90),
"nanos-world::SM_Crate_07"
)

🛠 Constructors

Default Constructor

local my_prop = Prop(location, rotation, asset, collision_type?, gravity_enabled?, grab_mode?, ccd_mode?)
TypeNameDefaultDescription
Vectorlocation Required parameter No description provided
Rotatorrotation Required parameter No description provided
StaticMesh Referenceasset Required parameter No description provided
CollisionTypecollision_typeCollisionType.AutoSetting CollisionType.Auto will make it automatically switch between Normal and IgnoreOnlyPawn if they are smaller than radius 40 units.
booleangravity_enabledtrueNo description provided
GrabModegrab_modeGrabMode.AutoWhether or not the Prop can be grabbed
CCDModeccd_modeCCDMode.AutoWhether or not the Prop should have CCD enabled (disabling it may cause Props passing through objects if it's kinda small). It's smart to force it disabled on 'visual only' props.
info

If the Prop was spawned by the Client. It will have all interactions disabled (e.g. it will not be able to be grabbed by Characters).

info

Props smaller than radius 40 units or very thin (any side smaller than 20 units) will have CCD (Continuous Collision Detection) enabled automatically to avoid falling through the floor or other objects. This will slightly increase the performance cost of them!
