-Provides helpers and tools for creating and hosting gameplay code+Provides helpers and tools for creating and hosting gameplay code. Most of these tools can be used from the engine executable 'NewModules.exe', which starts the engine for development. The keys that can be used to control the engine are in EngineKeys.
  
 +==== Tools ====
  
-==== LinkeableEditor ====+  * **EngineProfiling** Instant simple profiling 
 +  * **EngineTracing** Stores trace file with ModelContainer changes 
 +  * **AnimationSystem** Helper for simulation (keyframed) animation 
 +  * **[[:documentation:menudisplayer|MenuDisplayer]] ** Displaying a simple menu 
 +  * **[[:documentation:worldselector|WorldSelector]] ** Selecting ANY Object in 3D by raycasting, by the use of selectableproviders 
 +  * **HotLoading** The engine will reload gameplay code will it is running 
 +  * **VSDebugAttacher** Provides several features for interaction with visual studio.

-Concept of the editor engine features: the editor has internal representations of every concept. You provide 'mappers' that map a single instance, to a single internal representation object + conversion methods to convert to and from the engine representation+  * **Physical ** provides physical properties to a modelobject.  Provides position,boundingbox, objectmatrix 
 +==== Rendering ====
  
 +  * **[[:documentation:camerainfo|CameraInfo]] ** contains methods to change the camera, get info about the camera, and generate a center screen ray!

- +
-Hotloading is made possible by the [[:documentation:modelobject|ModelObject]] system. +

-**Simulator**responsible for updating the state of [[:documentation:modelobjects|ModelObjects]]. It ensures that inconsistencies in the data are corrected/updated. +
- +
- +
-**[[:documentation:modelobject|ModelObject]]**Contains publicly readable and writeable data. +
- +
- +
-**[[:documentation:modelobjectpart|ModelObjectPart]]** A modelobject can contain several parts which are also readable/writeable data. Chances to the parts also invalidate the parent modelobject. +
