# Attributes

The value representation of a parameter/mechanic in our system.

### There are 2 types of Attributes: Resources and Stats. &#x20;

1\. **Resources** use baseValue. They are expendable (e.g. HealthPoints, Potions, Ammo, Coins).

2\. **Stats** use currentValue. Not expendable (e.g. MaxHealth, MaxMana, JumpHeight, CritChance).

\*Create and assign all needed attributes via the Editor Inspector or on Awake(). Creating and assigning attributes during runtime is not supported currently.&#x20;

### AttributeName

Attributes have a property called AttributeName, it is a simple reusable ScriptableObject that assigns the name and type for an Attribute object.

You can create as many different attributesNames as you want to represent different values in your mechanics.

## Create different attributes for your game's mechanics:

#### Right click in Editor -> Create -> GAS -> AttributeName

\*AttributeNames must be in the same folder as their library (AttributeNameLibrary)
