A specialized graphics property for actors. This creates a Graphics::ActorEntity, knows how to switch animations and manages attachments.

A camera property adds the ability to manipulate the camera to an entity. Please note that more advanced camera properties should always be derived from the class camera property if camera focus handling is desired, since the FocusManager will only work on game entities which have a CameraProperty (or a subclass) attached.

It is completely ok though to handle camera manipulation in a property not derived from CameraProperty, but please be aware that the FocusManager will ignore those.

The camera property will generally

A chase camera for 3rd person camera control.

An input property adds the ability to handle user input to an entity. If an InputProperty is attached to an entity it can become the input focus entity. Global input focus is managed by the Game::FocusManager singleton.

If you want the concept of an input focus in your application you should derive your own input property classes from the InputProperty class, because then the FocusManager will be aware of it (otherwise it will just ignore the entity).

A light property adds a light source object (Graphics::LightEntity) to a game entity.

This is the central attribute registry for thisfeature. For more information on attributes, see Attr::Attribute.

ActorPhysicsProperty adds "actor physics" to an entity. This is mainly a capsule which is always kept upright and responds "immediately" to move messages. Attach the ActorPhysicsProperty instead of a PhysicsProperty to an entity.

ActorPhysicsProperty implements the following messages:

MoveGoto MoveFollow MoveDirection MoveStop MoveTurn MoveRotate
