Feature Request: Create - Entities folders or custom groups/tags.

Open Aitolda opened this issue 4 years ago • 8 comments

Ultimately the goal is to be able to assign custom categories to entities. This could be approached a number of different ways, but as long as the category is searchable that'll do the trick.

Discuss?

To do that currently you can put a keyword in the name of the entity. Not as fancy but still very useful.

That's what I currently do. This would be a step beyond that. This also opens the door a little further to things like having groups of objects that respond to procedural weather (roughness decreases on all objects listed as "outdoors" for a period of time while simultaneous rain particles are falling, etc).

Consider also to have a preference (Create App level) to set tags to be present by default when entities are created. Maybe the user name could be one of the options. (but not limited to that) As sting properties could be used I suppose. I wonder what is the max length.

Good idea. Maybe a dropdown selector below the collision settings.

To accomplish this, a "tags" property should be added to Entities.
