State Settings

Example StateSettings.

• Each vehicle contains multiple VehicleComponents, such as EngineComponent or GroundDetectionComponent. This includes the modules. Each of the VehicleComponents can have a LOD setting and can be Disabled/Enabled.
• StateSettings is a ScriptableObject containing info about LODs and Enabled/Disabled state of each VehicleComponent. The aim of StateSettings is to prevent having to set the state of each VehicleComponent on each VehicleController individually.
• The StateSettings can be assigned through the Settings tab of VehicleController.

For more info about VehicleComponents and their states and LODs check VehicleComponent page.

• LODs can be set through the StateSettings ScriptableObject.
• If the component has a LOD set (lodIndex >= 0) a piece of code is run each frame to check if the lodIndex of the component is less or equal to the VehicleController's activeLodIndex.
  
• If lodIndex is less or equal to activeLodIndex the component will be enabled, otherwise disabled.
  
• When LOD system is active it overrides the ENABLED button for that component and enables/disables the component based on LOD settings and the distance from the camera.

• Each VehicleComponent loads state from StateSettings. This is only done once, on vehicle initialization, so the StateSettings can also be thought of as initial vehicle component state settings.
