ActorResource

Type

Name

Priority

Currently only works for actors with ParticleAnimation resource type. Particle animations with a priority level lower than the game's VFX priority level won't be created. This can be set using DCEI.SetVfxPriorityLevel(). Note that the actor will be created, just not the particle animation

SpriteOptions

Disable Camera Facing

Set actor with sprite asset not billboard facing camera, default sprite will keep facing camera

Center Sprite Anchor

Set actor with sprite asset anchor to center, default will be bottom of the sprite

Flip X

If checked, flips the sprite horizontally.

Flip Y

If checked, flips the sprite vertically.

Rendering Queue

Which rendering queue this sprite will be rendered to. This is required to set the relative rendering order between sprites and Animation2D actors. If you don't need to use Animation2D actors, leave this as -1.

Rendering Group

EnumType: SpriteOptions.RenderingGroup

Sprites from different rendering groups are rendered in different phases of the engine's render pipeline. Set a proper rendering group to make the sprite render above/below other objects. This property is ignored when "Rendering Queue" is used.

Rendering Priority

Sets the sprite's rendering priority. Sprites within the same rendering group/queue will be sorted by the rendering priority before rendering. To make the sprite render above/below other objects, set a proper rendering group/queue.

Enable X Z Rotation With Camera Facing

If checked, this allow sprites using camera facing to retain any rotations applied on the X or Z planes. This typically used with missile sprite actors to preserve mover rotations.

Animation2DOptions

Rendering Queue

Which rendering queue to use. Valid values are [0, 3]. Animations belong to a lower value rendering queue will be rendered before animations belong to a higher value rendering queue. Use this to render 2D animations above/below other objects that supports rendering queue. To adjust the rendering order between 2d animations, use the "Rendering Priority" field.

Rendering Priority

2d animations with lower rendering priority will be rendered below animations with higher rendering priority. If two animations have the same rendering priority, the one closer to the camera will be rendered above the other one.

SpineOptions

Rendering Queue

Which rendering queue to use. See the documentation for Animation2DOptions for more information.

Rendering Priority

Spine animations with lower rendering priority will be rendered below others with higher priority. See the documentation for Animation2DOptions for more information.

ActorAction.PlaySound

Sound Name

The name of the sound asset to play.

Volume

The volume multiplier for the sound. Using 0 defaults to 1.

Additional Sound Names

If set, pick a random sound asset from the list (or the one specified by "SoundName") to play.

SiteOperation.Offset

Applies an offset to the actor's position.

X

Left/Right offset. Positive values are offset right, negative values are offset left.

Y

Up/Down offset. Positive values are up, negative values are down.

Z

Forward/Back offset. Positive values are forward, negative values are back.

X Range

If set, a random value between 0 and the X Range will be applied to the X offset when this site operation is applied. Only accepts positive values.

Example: X is -1 and X Range is 2 will result in a random X offset between -1 and 1.

Y Range

If set, a random value between 0 and the Y Range will be applied to the Y offset when this site operation is applied. Only accepts positive values.

Z Range

If set, a random value between 0 and the Z Range will be applied to the Z offset when this site operation is applied. Only accepts positive values.

Orientation

EnumType: SiteOperation.OrientationType

Determines relative direction of the offset.

UnitBattleData

Enemy Search Range

The unit will search for enemies to attack within this radius.

Engage Radius

The unit will search for enemies to engage within this radius.

Reset Radius

The unit will leash if it leaves this radius.

Chase In Defense Area Only

Used for generic controllable unit. If target is outside of the range, the unit will stop chasing and go back

Force Rescan Period

Time in seconds for weapons to be forced to rescan targets.
