Hey all,

I know you can link a spawner to to a template, but is there a way to link any object to a template in TXB? This would be very helpful information, and thanks in advance.

I'm pretty sure the answer is no. You can only mount a spawner to a template. If you want to mount something else to a template, you could turn that other item into a template, then create a spawner for that item, then mount the new spawner to the template. But that's about it. I'll need to check the engine source to be sure.

Thanks John,

Ill try to get around it then, unless you find a way to change that. Thanks again.

Wait, what are you trying to do? You want to use templates without using spawners, is that what you're asking?

Basically yes. I want to make individual objects in torque and link them to the template.
