Behavior element behavior adding support to be attached to an ECBehaviorAttachSlot.

While ECBehaviorAttachToParent behavior allows to attach objects by using the IGDE World Editor the ECBehaviorAttachable behavior allows to attach objects at runtime into attachment slots provided by ECBehaviorAttachSlot.

This behavior knows how to attach to ECBehaviorAttachSlot containing an ECBehaviorCollider.

This behavior can be used only once on an element.

Element class properties have the prefix attachable. .

This behavior has these events:

Attachable has been attached to slot.

Attachable has been removed from slot.

• ECBehaviorCollider

This behavior does not support optional behaviors.

This behavior does support element class to be persistable (setPersistable).

ECBehaviorAttachable.

Since DragonScript Module Version 1.0

• Allow element to be attached to ECBehaviorAttachSlot present on other elements.

This example defines an element which can be attached to ECBehaviorAttachSlot.

class MyElement extends BehaviorElementClass
  public var ECBehaviorComponent component
  public var ECBehaviorCollider collider
  public var ECBehaviorAttachable attachable
  func new()
    component = ECBehaviorComponent.new(this, null)
    collider = ECBehaviorCollider.new(this, component)
    attachable = ECBehaviorAttachable.new(this, collider)
  end
end

Using element class supporting adding behaviors the behavior can be added like this:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<elementClass name='MyClass' class='GenericBehaviorElement'>
  <behavior type='ECBehaviorComponent'/>
  <behavior type='ECBehaviorCollider'/>
 
  <behavior type='ECBehaviorAttachable'>
    <!-- set element properties. omit property prefix if used inside behavior tag -->
    <string name='.name'>value</string>
  </behavior>
</elementClass>
