Frontend

Based on game build 714014 | Last updated: 2026-03-05

Overview

The frontend prefab is not instantiated as a game entity. Instead, it serves as a metadata container used by the asset loading system to declare and preload all frontend-related assets (images, animations, sounds, atlases, etc.) and referenced prefabs. It aggregates assets required by the main menu, character selection, world settings, trade UI, mini-games, and platform-specific UI elements, including console-specific controller layouts and MOTD (Message of the Day) popups.

Usage example

This prefab is loaded by the engine during initialization and does not require manual instantiation or interaction. Modders typically reference it indirectly when extending UI functionality:

-- No direct usage needed; the engine loads this prefab during frontend initialization
-- To extend assets, modify or extend the `assets` table before `return Prefab(...)`
