SceneEntryInstance

Remembers which placement entry a placed object was created from. Added automatically to placed objects when PlacementSettings.add_entry_instance is on. Used to rebuild objects on load and to look up their build cost.

Syntax

class SceneEntryInstance extends PlacementSystemsComponent

Members

Name	Kind	Summary
entry_path_changed	Signal	Emitted when entry_path changes.
entry_path	Property	Path to the placement entry resource (.tres or .res) this object was created from.
default_name	Field
group_name	Field
scene_entry	Property
placement_instance_id	Property	Stable, persisted instance identifier for this placed object. Generated once at first commit; survives save/load, move, rotate, flip, demolish preparation, and scene reparenting. Uses a UUID-style random ID. Never derived from Object.get_instance_id(), node path, transform, or session identity. Empty until ensure_placement_instance_id() is called.
ensure_placement_instance_id	Method
find_in	Method
ensure_on	Method
is_valid_placement_instance_id	Method
saved_mount_data	Property	Opaque, dimension-neutral restore metadata carried through a save/load round trip. The shared component preserves this dictionary exactly as the demo's save path merged it in; the internal 3D persistence layer reconstructs a typed mount from it and dispatches via the 3D mount service. Empty for legacy saves and for purely 2D placements — the 3D subscriber falls back to deterministic cell reconstruction from the transform. Kept as a plain Dictionary so this shipped component does not depend on any 3D type.
saved_game_data	Property	Game-owned save fields carried through a restore/re-save cycle. Plugin-owned fields are written after this dictionary and therefore always win conflicts.
resolve_placement_dependencies	Method
validate_setup	Method
save	Method
instance_from_save	Method
INSTANCE_NAME	Field	Shared name constants Be very careful about changing these because game saves do not know if you change the string key of loaded properties.
ENTRY	Field
TRANSFORM	Field
MOUNT	Field	Authoritative placement-registration record (mount type, cell, edge/face keys) merged in by the demo's save path.
PLACEMENT_INSTANCE_ID	Field	Stable persisted instance identifier.
WORLD_RECORD	Field	Complete dimension/mode/mount/transform authority record.
DIMENSION	Field	Keys of the world record itself.
COORDINATE_MODE	Field
ORIENTATION	Field
SMOOTH_CONSUMED	Field
