To create new resource node we must first create an EntitySO data set with capabilities, before we create a prefab.
Select Resource Node type
Click Create New button
Set desired name and description of the resource node
Cost can be ignored here;
Select Capabilities tab
With capabilities you add configuration for behaviours added to the entity/unit or modules managing them
Set node's resource and it's quantity
After data asset is created, we can proceed with creating a prefab:
Click on the Create Prefab button if you wish for prefab to be created automatically. If you use existing prefab, drag it in the associated prefab field and click Update Prefab instead. This step attaches (does not remove) any components required by defined capabilities themselves. Any other additional scripts we can add on the prefab directly.
Now click Open Prefab to and open Scene window to see it.
Configure visuals as desired, by default a primitive cube model is present.
Add collider to the root game object, primarily for selection and other potential raycasts your systems may be performing (such as navigation avoidance).
Set Layer of the root object (the one with collider) which is used for selection.
Optional
Add Obstacle for your navigation system, so units avoid the object.
Add Static Interaction Position Provider, a component which generates pre-defined positions for interacting with an object. This is useful only if you have no collision avoidance in your navigation and purely rely on direct destinations to interact.
Either you have your own collector set up or you are using the provided worker included in the demo, make sure that the resource collector capability supports this resource. If supported resources array is empty, then all resources are supported; otherwise only listed ones can be collected.
