Entity Links

 


Overview

The Entity Links pane displays entities linked to the main entity. Creating an entity link is essentially making a dynamic link which can be referenced in LUA script, so for example if you have a Mission Objective entity you can create a link that can be easily referenced in LUA that tracks a given number of entities on the map. Or maybe you have an Explosion Trigger that is linked to multiple entities that when activated will kill all these linked entities. 

Pick Target

Click the Pick Target button and then the desired entity to create a link. 


Double-click to jump between linked entities, right-clicking Link Name or Entity will open a menu with the commands, Change Target Entity, Rename Link and Delete Link. 

Change Target Entity

This will change the Entity associated with a link. 

Rename Link

Renames a link, when you first create a link it's a good idea to rename it appropriately. 

Delete Link

Deletes a link. 

Pick New Target

Same functionality as Pick Target button, click Pick New Target and then the desired entity to create a link.
