Detail mesh entities are useful for adding details to the geometry of a level without much impact on the performance.

== General Parameters ==
* '''Name''': Name for the entity (non editable)
* '''Position''': 3D Vector storing the position in world.
* '''Rotation''': 3D Vector storing the rotation.
* '''Radius''': float storing the value for the uniform scale.
* '''Mesh''': file name for the entity.

== Specific Parameters ==
* '''Diffuse color mul''': color to tint the object with.

This mode is used to create detail mesh entities. These are useful for adding details to a level without much impact on the performance.

''' '''Main category''': this ComboBox is used to select the current set of objects. Sets should map to directories under the static_objects directory in redist.

''' '''Subcategory''': this ComboBox will show all subsets inside the set picked previously.

''' '''Object list''': all objects under the selected subcategory. Clicking on an entry will select a static object file to be used in following placements.

''' '''Thumbnail''': shows a little picture so you can see how the object looks like.
''' '''Create on surface''': when this is on, you are able to create objects on the surface of other objects, such as static objects, entities, primitives or terrain.

''' '''Scale settings''': this sets the scale for the object on creation. Can be set to a fixed or a random value, the latter defined by a range given by both scale inputs, min and max.

''' '''Rotation settings''': this sets the rotation for the object on creation. Can be set to a fixed or a random value, the latter defined by a range given by both rotate inputs, min and max.

''' '''Color settings''': this will define a color range from which a color will be picked for every new placed object.
