Transport Surface
The transport surface component is a core component that defines a moving surface for a wide variety of conveyors, including straight and curved conveyors. The following types of conveyors are supported:
- Straight conveyors
- Curved conveyors
- Nose over/under conveyors
- Mitre/injector conveyors
- Spiral/helical conveyors
- Twist conveyors
- Spline conveyors
- Roller conveyors
For further details on all properties associated with this component and how to use this component with scripting, please see the API documentation.
This component can create a conveyor from a single continuous surface. A motor may be attached to the component to drive the transport surface. The transport surface component should be added to an entity that also has a physics component with a collider.
Properties
The transport surface component properties that are accessible through the inspector.
Surface
The surface for the transport surface. You can click the select button to select a surface from the mesh. Hover over the surface you want to select and left-click to confirm the selection.
Motor
The motor that drives the transport surface. You can select an existing motor to be attached to the transport surface, or click the add button to create a new motor component (added to the selected entity) that is automatically attached to the transport surface.
