Fields

Fields
Name	Type	Description
`persistent`	Bool	Determines whether or not this item will be saved to the server.
`UpdateOrder`	Int	Controls the order in which this component is updated.
`Enabled`	Bool	Controls whether or not this component is enabled. Some components stop their functionality when this field is disabled, but some don't.
`EditModeOnly`	Bool	User can only interact with the joint in Edit Mode
`AllowSteal`	Bool	Controls whether other users can steal the grabbable joint from other players
`DropOnDisable`	Bool	Controls whether the user drops the joint if the object has been disabled
`DontDrive`	Bool
`AllowOnlyPhysicalGrab`	Bool	Only allow grabbing the joint with a physical interaction - remote grabs are not allowed
`ActiveUserFilter`	ActiveUserHandling
`CustomGrabCheck`	delegate of identity GrabCheck
`_grabber`	Grabber
`_holdSlot`	Slot
`_pos`	reference drive of Sync`1<Float3>
`_rot`	reference drive of Sync`1<FloatQ>
`_scl`	reference drive of Sync`1<Float3>
`__legacyActiveUserRootOnly`	Bool
`GrabPriority`	Int	Determines what gets grabbed if several grabbable objects are touching someone's grab sphere. The IGrabbable with the highest priority will be grabbed first. If the highest priority ties with another IGrabbable, it will grab both of those and ignore any lower priority IGrabbables.
`MaxSwing`	Float
`MaxTwist`	Float	Maximum amount the joint will rotate in the given axis
`Axis`	Float3	Determines which axis the joint rotates on. Use 1 to define the axis, 0 to ignore it
`TwistReferenceAxis`	Float3
`PositionTwistThresholdAngle`	Float
`VibrationAngle`	Float
`VibrationPreset`	VibratePreset
`SnapIncrement`	Float
`SnapTime`	Float	The time it takes for the joint to lerp towards given SnapOrientations. Higher the value the slower it takes
`SnapOnRelease`	Bool	Controls whether the join snaps to given SnapOrientations
`SnapOrientations`	list of SnapOrientation
`origRotation`	FloatQ
`rotReference`	FloatQ
`dirReference`	Float3
`twistReference`	Float3
`usePositionTwist`	Bool
