In OpenBOR a child entity is an entity spawned for or by an existing entity. Child entities are used for a variety of in game functions including projectiles, NPCs, and particle effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
“Hadouken!” – Ryu’s classic projectile attack is one example of a child entity.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Following<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Behaviors to set up following a parent. Typically used for NPC helpers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Follow Offset<\/h4>\n\n\n

If following a parent, this adjusts the target position from parent. The X axis is relative to parent’s facing, meaning a negative number adjusts toward the parent’s back, while positive numbers adjust toward the front. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Range entity uses to follow. If the target position falls outside of any range axis, the NPC will attempt to move toward the target position. X axis is relative to NPC’s facing. For legacy compatibility, default values are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Base value: If entity has a valid Idle with non 0 Minimum X range, default is Minimum X range. Otherwise, 100.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Base value applied as negative default to Min X\/Y and positive default to Max X\/Y.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Base value * 0.5 applied as negative default to Min Z and positive default to Max Z.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Range entity uses to follow by running. Entity will run toward its parent target position if the the following criteria are met:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Entity is already following.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Entity has running set up.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. The target position is outside of a range axis.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Entity is facing toward the target position.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      Default values for X, Y and Z axis use the base value of Follow Range X setting +100. For example, if the base value of Follow Range is 100, then the default is -200 for X, Y and Z minimums and 200 for X, Y and Z maximums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Range for auto recall. If the target position falls outside of any range axis, the NPC will instantly return to target position and play its recall animation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
      Recall Offset<\/h4>\n\n\n
      \nchild_follow_recall_offset_x {int}\nchild_follow_recall_offset_y {int}\nchild_follow_recall_offset_z {int}\n\n#default\nchild_follow_recall_offset_x 0\nchild_follow_recall_offset_y 0\nchild_follow_recall_offset_z 0\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n
      Adjust target position for instant recall. The X axis is relative to parent’s facing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
      Recall Animation<\/h4>\n\n\n
      \nchild_follow_recall_animation {animation name}\n\n# default\nchild_follow_recall_animation respawn\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n
      Animation to play during recall. Accepts any valid animation name, or none<\/code> for no recall animation at all. If the provided (or default) animation is invalid, Spawn will play instead. If there is no valid Spawn animation, nothing plays. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \nchild_follow_direction_adjust_config {direction}\n\n#default\nchild_follow_direction_adjust_config toward\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n
      Facing behavior within direction adjust range and idle. Accepts one of the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
