Type:IWorldElement

The IWorldElement type is an interface type that represents any object of a reference type that may exist in a world. It is the foundation of the data model.

Every object that can be referenced can be cast to and from IWorldElement, making the type a universal interface to everything in a world.

Objects that are IWorldElements include, but are not limited to:

• Slots
• Components
• Users
• Sync Elements, such as fields on an object
• Sync Objects, such as Points on a ValueGradientDriver

Every IWorldElement has a unique reference ID associated with it. Only one IWorldElement in a world may have any given reference ID, including elements that exist outside of the Root hierarchy.
