prepare_manipulation_copy(

) -> void

Flags: static

Utility functions for preparing cloned objects during manipulation operations.

This class provides centralized logic for disabling scripts and processing on duplicated nodes used in preview and manipulation workflows. This ensures that AI scripts, movement logic, and other gameplay code don’t execute on temporary copies being positioned/previewed. Prepares a manipulated copy by disabling scripts and processing. This prevents AI movement, physics updates, and other gameplay logic from executing on the temporary copy during move/build operations.

p_target: Node - The root node of the copied object to prepare

p_type_exceptions: Array[String] - Script class names to preserve (e.g., “Manipulatable”)

remove_scripts_recursive(
    p_target: Node,
    p_type_exceptions: Array[String]
) -> void

Flags: static

Removes scripts from a node and its children recursively. Scripts with global names in the exception list are preserved.

p_target: Node - The node to process

p_type_exceptions: Array[String] - Script class names to keep


restore_processing

restore_processing(p_target: Node) -> void

Flags: static

Re-enables processing on a node (typically after canceling a manipulation). This is the inverse of prepare_manipulation_copy’s process mode change.

p_target: Node - The node to re-enable
