Markable Proxy

Overview

The Markable_proxy component acts as a wrapper that forwards marking operations (e.g., Mark, SetMarkable, HasMarked) to a referenced entity's markable component. It also dynamically applies or removes the "markable_proxy" tag on its own entity based on the value of canbemarked, ensuring consistent tagging without requiring direct tag management elsewhere.

Dependencies & Tags

• Referenced Components: markable (expected on the proxy entity)
• Tags Added/Removed: Dynamically adds/removes the "markable_proxy" tag on self.inst depending on canbemarked.

Properties

Property	Type	Default Value	Description
inst	GObject	nil	The entity instance this component is attached to.
proxy	GObject?	nil	Optional target entity whose markable component is delegated to.
canbemarked	boolean	inferred from onmarkable	Controls whether the "markable_proxy" tag is added (true) or removed (false). Set via the class initializer function.

Main Functions

Mark(doer)

• Description: Delegates the Mark call to the referenced proxy entity's markable component, if it exists.
• Parameters:
  • doer: The entity performing the marking action (typically a player or NPC).

SetMarkable(markable)

• Description: Updates the internal canbemarked state and delegates SetMarkable to the proxy's markable component. This also triggers the onmarkable callback, which updates the "markable_proxy" tag.
• Parameters:
  • markable: A boolean indicating whether the proxy entity should now be markable.

HasMarked(doer)

• Description: Delegates the HasMarked call to the referenced proxy entity's markable component, if it exists. Returns nil if no proxy or markable component is available.
• Parameters:
  • doer: The entity to check for a prior marking.
