What prefab an entity was created from

Does anyone know if there is a way to tell what prefab an entity was created from? Like the actual path and pfb file or do I need to track that myself?

 

I was just hoping maybe Prefab:Load() added a key to the returned entity like "file", "Prefabs/Characters/zombie.pfb" or something. I think this would be handy to have if we don't already.

Hi Rick,

 

you can do so if I have understood the question correctly.

 

local planet

planet = Prefab:Load("Prefabs/BlueFrozen/Planeten/Planet1.pfb")

 

planet.script.Prefabs = "Prefabs/BlueFrozen/Planeten/Planet1.pfb"

System:Print(planet.script.Prefabs)

Yeah, that would be the manual way. I was hoping LE set a key of the entity automatically as I would be using this for saving/loading of dynamically created prefabs. It would have just been less work for the user of the save/load script to not have to do that for every prefab that they create dynamically.
