Smart Objects are assets and scripts in the Editor library that work out of the box. They make creating games easier and quicker. Some Smart Objects are a combination of visuals, scripts and components that can be customized to better fit the design of your game. Other Smart Objects exist only as a singular visual, script or component with specific defined behavior that you can attach to any asset to further customize your games.

Smart Objects can be easily found using the Filter button, located on the top of the Library panel. The Filter button will open a panel with a list of categories that you can use to find assets. Clicking on the Smart Objects option will reveal a list of all the Smart Objects currently available.

If you'd like to use a Smart Object in your game, simply Drag and Drop the asset from the Library to the Viewport by clicking on it, holding the left mouse button and releasing once you have positioned it.

Smart Objects can be edited and customized like any other asset in the Editor by changing variables and their values in components and scripts. For more information on these terms and editing objects in general, see Editor Basics.
