The Controller class manages a dynamic node in a world.

class Controller : public HashTableElement<Controller>, public ListElement<Controller>, public Observable<Controller, EventType>,

public Packable, public Configurable, public Registrable<Controller, ControllerRegistration>

Controller::NewController	Constructs a new controller of a particular type.
Controller::GetControllerType	Returns the controller type.
Controller::GetControllerFlags	Returns the controller flags.
Controller::SetControllerFlags	Sets the controller flags.
Controller::GetControllerIndex	Returns the World Manager controller index.
Controller::GetTargetNode	Returns the node to which a controller is attached.
Controller::ValidNode	Returns a boolean value indicating whether the controller can be assigned to a particular node.
Controller::InstanceExtractable	Returns a boolean value indicating whether the controller's target node should be extracted from an instanced world.
Controller::ActivateController	Called when a controller is activated by some kind of trigger.
Controller::DeactivateController	Called when the trigger node that activated a controller is deactivated.
Controller::PreprocessController	Performs any preprocessing that a controller needs to do before being used in a world.
Controller::WakeController	Wakes a sleeping controller.
Controller::SleepController	Puts a controller to sleep.
Controller::MoveController	Performs any per-frame movement or processing that a controller needs to do.
Controller::UpdateController	Performs any processing that must be done before the node to which a controller is attached is rendered.
Controller::InvalidateController	Indicates that a controller needs to be updated.
Controller::CreateMessage	Called to create a cotroller-defined message.
Controller::ReceiveMessage	Called to process a controller-defined message.
Controller::SendInitialStateMessages	Called to send messages containing the controller's state to a new player.
Controller::HandleInteractionEvent	Called to handle an event for an interactive node.

type	The controller type.

The Controller class is the general mechanism through which dynamic nodes are managed in a world. Any node that moves for almost any reason is controlled by a specialized subclass of the Controller class. The Controller class also serves as the point of communication for nodes that need to be synchronized in a multiplayer environment.

HashTableElement<Controller>	Used internally by the World Manager.
ListElement<Controller>	Used internally by the World Manager.
Observable<Controller, EventType>	Controllers can post events that are handled by observers.
Packable	Controllers can be packed for storage in resources.
Configurable	Controllers can define configurable parameters that are exposed as user interface widgets in the World Editor.
Registrable<Controller, ControllerRegistration>	Custom controller types can be registered with the engine.
