Base elements
Everything in the divinity engine needs one or more base elements. See these elements as building blocks for the final object.
There are generally two big building blocks: resources and root templates.
Resources are base elements that represent a specific type of data, such as a texture, or a model.
Root templates are built up of resources. They represent a base template of a certain object you can place, such as a character or a chair.
Take for example a chair. A chair needs:
- A visual model resource
- Texture resource
- A physics model resource
- A root template grouping all the resources into the specific chair you want.
