Creating A Lua Class

[Shard]

Hey guys, I have a quick question. How do I create a Lua file so that I can declare the class of each object? I want to do this so that I can read in each object with out having to check for each objects name, because that requires that each object be individually named and there can be typos and whatnot that can go wrong. If I code the class before hand, that problem is dealt with easily.

 

 

Thanks

Double-click on the class node in the editor to open the class script.

Thanks Josh, but I know how to open it. the problem that I'm having is that I don't know how to define a class in code.

 

From my level sbx:

Model {
path="info_player_node.gmf"
position=-1.00000000,1.00000000,18.0000000
rotation=-0.000000000,-0.000000000,0.000000000
scale=1.00000000,1.00000000,1.00000000
id=211024872
"class"="Model"
"name"="baseEnemy"
}

 

Instead of the name being baseEnemy, I want the class to be baseEnemy for all my baseEnemy nodes.

In what language do you want to code your class in?

Lua or C/C++
