What are Smart Objects?

Smart Objects are assets and scripts in the Editor library that work out of the box. They make creating games easier and quicker. Some Smart Objects are a combination of visuals, scripts and components that can be customized to better fit the design of your game. Other Smart Objects exist only as a singular visual, script or component with specific defined behavior that you can attach to any asset to further customize your games.
