ObjectReference Script

Extends: Form Script

Script for the manipulation of object instances.
If you are adding a script to an object that is going to be a reference in the world (like a button for example) your script will need to extend this script.

Definition

ScriptName ObjectReference extends Form

Properties

• float X [read-only]: The current X position of the reference.
• float Y [read-only]: The current Y position of the reference.
• float Z [read-only]: The current Z position of the reference.

These properties are meant to be used when calling SetMotionType:

• int Motion_Dynamic [read-only]: 1
• int Motion_SphereInertia [read-only]: 2
• int Motion_BoxInertia [read-only]: 3
• int Motion_Keyframed [read-only]: 4
• int Motion_Fixed [read-only]: 5
• int Motion_ThinBoxInertia [read-only]: 6
• int Motion_Character [read-only]: 7
