Content:Entity Definition File

An Entity Definition File is a DEF file that defines the different types of entities that exist in the game. Once an entity has been defined, it can be referred to by name inside of a LND file, whose format is described in the page Content:Land File Format. Every content pack contains at most one entity definition file. If a content pack is to include an action definition file, it must list the path to it under the key ENTITY_DEFS_FILE in its Content:Manifest File.

Each row defines one entity. Entities are created directly from these definitions.

Each value listed in the Actions field must refer to the ID of a defined action. That action must either be provided by the built-in content pack or defined in this content pack. In either case, more information can be obtained on the page for the Content:Action Definition File.

All names are case-insensitive.
