Replayproxy

Based on game build 714014 | Last updated: 2026-03-03

Overview

ReplayProxy is a lightweight component that acts as a proxy container for identifying the original entity during replay playback. It stores the unique GUID and prefab name of the real entity being replayed, allowing systems to reference the source entity without requiring direct network synchronization.

Usage example

local inst = CreateEntity()
inst:AddComponent("replayproxy")
inst.components.replayproxy:SetRealEntityGUID(12345)
inst.components.replayproxy:SetRealEntityPrefabName("wavingtree")
local guid = inst.components.replayproxy:GetRealEntityGUID()
local display_name = inst.components.replayproxy:GetRealEntityPrefabName()
