GameObj

Game Object (GameObj) is a Dynamic object within the game that can occupy a position of the world, including a Container. Game Objects are the most common of all Objects and can have Variables and/or Modules attached to them.

A potion, a monster, a door, and a sword are all examples of GameObjs.

Game Object Properties

  • Referencing a gameObj from a known Id: mGameObj = GameObj(mId)</code

Tips

• Obj variables should only contain data you are intending to persist to disk, especially since reading from an ObjVar immediately after setting it will not always return the new value.
• GameObj can communicate between each other using SendMessage just like Modules.
