| - | A SwingDoor entity is just that; a swing door. Any door you can grab and swing open is considered a SwingDoor. The other option would be LevelDoor, which goes under its own category. To use a SwingDoor, you need to attach joints to where you want the door to swing around. These are usually place by the hinges of the door. On the joint you can set the min and max values to limit how much the door can be opened. These are usually approximately 90 degrees apart in either positive or negative directions. | + | A SwingDoor entity is just that; a swing door.

| ==== OilBarrel ==== | ==== OilBarrel ==== | ||

Enemy entities are advanced to set up, and should include animations added through Settings > Animations. Enemy properties can be modified in the entity type window, like certains sounds and music tracks playing, the enemy's awareness levels and damage, speed and other similar settings. An enemy does not use a collision box, but instead a skeleton and the before mentioned properties to determine how to collide/hit something. |
| ==== Enemy_Waterlurker ==== | ==== Enemy_Waterlurker ==== | ||
| - | Add info. | + | Enemy type of the watermonster. Since you can't assign animations to it, you might as well just use the normal waterlurker of the base game unless you want to change its properties (like damage on hit or movement speed). |
