Prevent the actor from being moved in the editor.
bMovable[edit]
Type: bool
Actor can be moved.
Default value: True
bNoDelete[edit]
Type: bool
Modifiers: const

bShouldBaseAtStartup[edit]
Type: bool
If true, find base for this actor at level startup, if collides with world and PHYS_None or PHYS_Rotating
bStasis[edit]
Type: bool
In StandAlone games, turn off if not in a recently rendered zone turned off if bStasis and physics = PHYS_None or PHYS_Rotating.
bSuperHighDetail[edit]
Type: bool
Only show up for players that have their World Detail settings set to "High".
LifeSpan[edit]

bBlockActors[edit]
Type: bool
Blocks other nonplayer actors.
bBlockKarma[edit]
Type: bool

Type: bool
Block non-zero extent actors/traces. This is used by player collision but also by the Shock Core or Spider Mines.
Default value: True
bBlockZeroExtentTraces[edit]
Type: bool
Block zero extent actors/traces. These are pretty much all other kinds of weaponfire.
Default value: True
bCollideActors[edit]
Type: bool
Modifiers: const
Collides with other actors. This is required to cause Touch()-events for this Actor and is needed to use the other collision types.
bPathColliding[edit]
Type: bool
This actor should collide (if bWorldGeometry && bBlockActors is true) during path building (ignored if bStatic is true, as actor will always collide during path building)
bProjTarget[edit]

Default value: 22.0
SurfaceType[edit]

Property group 'Display'[edit]
AmbientGlow[edit]
Type: byte
Ambient brightness, or 255=pulsing. You should keep this reasonably low, as StaticMeshs receive more AmbientBrightness than BSP surfaces and easily look odd this way.

Type: bool
Casts static shadows.
bStaticLighting[edit]
Type: bool
Uses raytraced lighting.
bUnlit[edit]
Type: bool
Lights don't affect actor.
bUseDynamicLights[edit]
Type: bool
The actor is affected by dynamic lights.
bUseLightingFromBase[edit]
Type: bool
If the actor has a Base, that base's lighting is used.

ClientOverlayTimer[edit]
Type: float
Modifiers: transient
Client inital time count
CullDistance[edit]

ForcedVisibilityZoneTag[edit]
Type: name
Modifiers: const
Makes the visibility code treat the actor as if it was in the zone with the given Tag. Note that if you specify this value, you have to make sure it really matches the correct ZoneInfo's Tag property. If the value is specified, but there's no zone with this Tag, the actor will never be visible!
LODBias[edit]
Type: float
Manipulate the Level of Detail, i.e. the mesh gets simplified when it's far enough away from the player's view.
Default value: 1.0
MaxLights[edit]

Default value: STY_Normal
Texture[edit]
Type: Material
Sprite texture if DrawType=DT_Sprite
Default value: S_Actor
UV2Mode[edit]
Type: EUV2Mode
?
UV2Texture[edit]
Type: Material
- I guess this has something to do with custom lightmap skins
Property group 'Events'[edit]

Multipurpose exclusion tag for excluding lights, projectors, rendering actors, blocking weather

Parameters for Karma Collision/Dynamics.
Property group 'LightColor'[edit]
LightBrightness[edit]
Type: float
How strong is the light in the affected radius.
LightHue[edit]
Type: byte
The color of the light.
LightSaturation[edit]
Type: byte
How strong is the color of the light. 255 means no color at all (resulting in white light) and 0 is only the color and no white parts.
See Light colors reference for a collection of colors.
Property group 'Lighting'[edit]
bActorShadows[edit]
Type: bool
Light casts actor shadows.
bAttenByLife[edit]
Type: bool
Attenuate light by diminishing lifespan
bCorona[edit]
Type: bool
Light uses Skin as a corona.
bDirectionalCorona[edit]
Type: bool
(If bCorona) Make corona bigger if it faces you, and zero and 90 degrees or beyond.
bDynamicLight[edit]
Type: bool
This light is dynamic.
bLightingVisibility[edit]
Type: bool
Calculate lighting visibility for this actor with line checks.
Default value: True
bSpecialLit[edit]
Type: bool
Only affects special-lit surfaces.
LightCone[edit]
Type: byte
The radius of the light cone if the LightEffect is set to StaticSpot.
LightEffect[edit]
Type: ELightEffect
Some cool animated effects which unfortunately can't be used ingame because lightmaps are pre-rendered.
However, StaticSpot and SunLight work and are used in their own subclasses. And you can use LE_Negative to have a Light that emits darkness, i.e. fights light in it's radius.
LightPeriod[edit]
Type: byte
How fast the LightEffects should be animated. Not used because LightEffects don't work.
LightPhase[edit]
Type: byte
Allows to offset LightEffects of different lights. Not used because LightEffects don't work.
LightRadius[edit]
Type: float
The radius around the actor that is affected by it's light. This is not an actual radius in measurable units but a multiplier for the function that calculates the light radius.
LightType[edit]
Type: ELightType
Animates the light with different on/off time. This feature is broken as well, due to the lightmap baking and would only work with Lights that have bStatic = false, like TriggerLights, but it doesn't look good without shadows.
Property group 'Movement'[edit]
AttachTag[edit]
Type: name
The object will be attached to the actor with this Tag and copy it's movement.
bBounce[edit]
Type: bool
Bounces when hits ground fast.
bFixedRotationDir[edit]
Type: bool
Fixed direction of rotation.
bHardAttach[edit]
Type: bool
If bHardAttach is true, the relative location of the attached actor is reset every time the base actor moves to account for the new location and orientation of the base actor.
If bHardAttach is false, each time the base moves or rotates, the base will update the location of the attached actor with the delta movement. If the attached actor is moving on its own, the movement of the attached actor will be added to the movement of the base.
bIgnoreEncroachers[edit]
Type: bool
Ignore collisions between Movers and this actor.
bIgnoreTerminalVelocity[edit]
Type: bool
If PHYS_Falling, ignore the TerminalVelocity of the PhysicsVolume.

Type: Sound
Ambient sound effect.
bFullVolume[edit]
Type: bool
Whether to apply ambient attenuation.
