<Definition xsi:type="MyObjectBuilder_ForageableDefinition">

Found in Environment\PhysicalModels_Bushes.sbc, defines a planetary plant that can be harvested.

Elements

 ↑   🔗 

ForageEffect <ForageEffect>	Type: String	Default: null
Required and played when this plant is picked up. SubtypeId of a ParticleEffect definition (Particles_*.sbc).
ForageEffectScale <ForageEffectScale>	Type: Single	Default: 0.03
Foraged entity's local boundingbox perimeter ((x+y+z) * 4) is multiplied by this before being given as the rescale multiplier for the particle (<ForageEffect>).
ForageSound <ForageSound>	Type: String	Default: null
Played only for local player when interacting with the forageable. SubtypeId (without Arc or Real prefix) of an audio definition (Audio_*.sbc).
Resilence <Resilence>	Type: Int32	Default: 200000
Newtons required to unroot this plant using impacts. Note that it is an integer meaning it can only be up to 2147483647. Breaking any tree or plant is hardcoded to use Tree Destruction particle subtypeId.
StopForceMultiplier <StopForceMultiplier>	Type: Single	Default: 0
Only used after this plant is unrooted. Impacting the unrooted plant gets a force applied in the inverse direction with Resilence * StopForceMultiplier newtons.

(Top) | From PhysicalModel Definition:

Mass <Mass>	Type: Single	Default: 0
Mass in kg. This does not work for blocks, it is overwritten by the cumulative mass of all the <Components> that are required to build it, unless <HasPhysics> is false in which case it contributes 0 mass to the grid.
Model <Model>	Type: String	Default: null
The visual and physical model. Path to a .mwm file relative to current mod's folder. Falls back to game folder if not found in current mod. Referencing assets in other mods
PhysicalMaterial <PhysicalMaterial>	Type: String	Default: null
SubtypeId of a PhysicalMaterial Definition (PhysicalMaterials.sbc). Visit Collision Effects for more details on what it's used for in general.
UseInstanceRender <UseInstanceRender>	Type: Boolean	Default: true
Only when used by planetary environment items. Unclear exactly how it works, however the vanilla game turns this off for its forageable plants, which a guess would be that it being set to true would be faster if the model is decorative, but for interactive models that need to have their own highlight/etc it needs to be turned off. (Added in SE v1.207)

Common

 ↑   🔗 

Id <Id>	Type: SerializableDefinitionId	Default: (invalid)
The type and subtype combined make up a unique identifier for this definition. If two definitions use the same Type+Subtype (Subtypes are only unique per Type), then the last to load will override the first one(s). For more details see Things to know about SBC. TypeId <TypeId> Type: string Default: (invalid) Must be an existing type with or without the "MyObjectBuilder_" prefix. Some types require an xsi:type, refer to the vanilla files for the exact pairing. TypeId vs xsi:type SubtypeId <SubtypeId> Type: string Default: (empty) This can be invented and only needs to be unique per TypeId. Vanilla game re-uses some subtypes over multiple types (e.g. Iron is used for Ore type and Ingot type). An empty value is also a valid subtype (which vanilla also uses on at least 5 blocks). Type Type (attribute) Type: string Default: (invalid) Same behavior as <TypeId>, do not define both. Subtype Subtype (attribute) Type: string Default: (empty) Same behavior as <SubtypeId>, do not define both. Example: <Id> <TypeId>CubeBlock</TypeId> <SubtypeId>FancyTable</SubtypeId> </Id> Because it has attribute alternatives it can also be declared as: <Id Type="CubeBlock" Subtype="FancyTable" />
DisplayName <DisplayName>	Type: String	Default: null
If the object defined here is visible anywhere in the game GUI, this would be the name shown for it. In cases where it is used, it is very much required. Can be plain-text. If the text contains DisplayName_ then: A localization key (from .resx files) will be searched for. It will scan for text variables to replace.
Description <Description>	Type: String	Default: null
Optional. If the object defined here is shown with a description in the game GUI (Hotbar/G-menu, HUD, etc) then this is the place to write it. Can be plain-text. If the text contains Description_ then: A localization key (from .resx files) will be searched for. It will scan for text variables to replace. If the final text (plain, localized or variable-replaced) contains {0}, {1}, etc, then they will replaced by kb&m control binds defined in <DescriptionArgs>.
DescriptionArgs <DescriptionArgs>	Type: String	Default: null
Optional. A comma-separated list of control IDs which are referenced in <Description> by {number} tags, which then get replaced by the keyboard or mouse bind that the viewer has for those controls. Example: <Description>Press {0} to fire, {1} to change color, {2} to interact.</description> <DescriptionArgs>PRIMARY_TOOL_ACTION,CUBE_COLOR_CHANGE,USE</DescriptionArgs> And each player will see their current binds for those actions. The control IDs can be found in your %appdata%/SpaceEngineers/SpaceEngineers.cfg at the ControlsButtons section.
Icon <Icon>	Type: String[]	Default: null
Icon(s) for the definition which may or may not be used depending on the definition type. Path to a .dds or .png file relative to current mod's folder. Falls back to game folder if not found in current mod. Referencing assets in other mods Can be declared multiple times which will stack icons on top of eachother, however it will not work for all definitions. Known definitions to work or not work with multiple icons Working: Blocks, BlockVariantGroups and component items seen in G-menu, BlockInfo (HUD right side) and toolbars; Blueprints in terminal production tab; Blocks and PhysicalItems in gamepad HUD. Partial: Blocks seen in terminal. Not working: HandItems (uses PhysicalItem's icon instead); Blocks and BlockVariantGroups seen in build planner, radial menu and some economy GUIs; PhysicalItems in economy GUIs and stores; Prefabs in stores; BlueprintClass (tabs) in terminal production tab; BankingSystemDefinition (Game\BankingSystem.sbc); Emotes (both kinds of definitions) in gamepad HUD; Block skins; RespawnShips. Special cases: Economy contracts, FactionIcons Definition.
DLC <DLC>	Type: String[]	Default: null
Optional. The DLC subtypeId that this definition will require. For the IDs, refer to <SE>\Content\Data\Game\DLCs.sbc. Can be declared multiple times to require multiple DLCs. Most definition types won't check for this, the ones that do: blocks, emotes and possibly anything else that can be placed in the toolbar.
AvailableInSurvival <AvailableInSurvival>	Type: Boolean	Default: true
Depends on the definition if it uses this, and if it does then this determines whether it can be accessible in survival game mode. Currently known definitions that do use this: Blocks, BlockVariantGroups, BlockCategories and any definition that can show up in a toolbar. EntityStatComponent Definition and EntityStat Definition.
Public <Public>	Type: Boolean	Default: true
If the definition is visible or accessible in some cases. For blocks, this only hides them and they can still be built using projectors and other means.
Enabled Enabled (attribute)	Type: Boolean	Default: true
If set to false it will remove the definition after it's been loaded. Example usage: <Definition Enabled="false"> The "Definition" above is the opening element that for the entire definition, not an inner node like <DisplayName> is. The opening node can have a different name for other definitions, some examples <Component>, <Blueprint>, etc.
xsi:type xsi:type (attribute)	Type: string	Default: null
Name of an object that this definition will be deserialized as. Sometimes required, depends on the definition. The wiki page for any given definition will mention at the top what xsi:type it requires, if any. The game's sbc files are also a reference on what xsi:types are required for a given definition. This attribute is available on all elements and comes from the XML specification. This game relies on this attribute to change which sub-definition object is used to deserialize that element's contents. It's what allows, for example, a thruster to have unique elements (such as <MinPlanetaryInfluence>) that no other block definitions have. For more details on how this relates to the TypeId, and usage examples, see: Things to know about SBC - TypeId vs xsi:type.

Obsolete Elements

 ↑   🔗 

Elements that exist in the game code or vanilla SBC, but do nothing

Note: this list only contains root-level from this definition only, nothing from inherited ones.

<ContainerType>	Type: String	Default: null
Not used. Instead, a RandomCargoEntityComponent Definition is linked to the forageable entity to provide the loot table.
