Prefabskins

Based on game build 719586 | Last updated: 2026-04-11

Overview​

prefabskins.lua is a data configuration file that defines global lookup tables for character, item, structure, and decoration skins. It maps prefab names to arrays of available skin identifiers via PREFAB_SKINS, lists non-selectable skin prefabs in PREFAB_SKINS_SHOULD_NOT_SELECT, and generates an inverted PREFAB_SKINS_IDS table for reverse lookups. This file is required by systems that need to resolve skin ownership or validate skin availability without attaching to specific entity instances.

Usage example​

local PrefabSkins = require "prefabskins"

-- Check available skins for a specific prefab
local skins = PrefabSkins.PREFAB_SKINS["wilson"]
if skins then
    print("Wilson has " .. #skins .. " available skins")
end

-- Verify if a skin is selectable
local is_selectable = not PrefabSkins.PREFAB_SKINS_SHOULD_NOT_SELECT["skin_name"]

-- Lookup prefab by skin ID
local prefab = PrefabSkins.PREFAB_SKINS_IDS["skin_id"]
