'''AssetLoader''' is a Component that is used to tell the game that an asset is still being used. This is helpful for when an asset is referenced in a way that deletes it during asset cleanup or during save. This component will prevent the asset from being cleaned up because it has a fake user.

When attaching component, specify any [[Type:IAsset`1|Asset]] type by name, and then insert an asset of that type into the asset field to give it a fake user.
Set the <code>Asset</code> field to the [[asset]] that should be kept around, afterwards the asset should not be cleaned up as long as it continues to be referenced by the AssetLoader.
