Node: All Node Types

Property Data Type Description
name** String The name used to identify this node in SHIPTide.

All nodes can have a name. Most nodes allow this name to be set by the GUI designer as a String. Some nodes, such as the resources node have this name fixed (in that case, to "resources") and are not modifiable by the GUI designer.

**The name property can be referenced in scripts, but the string value of the name cannot be referenced in SHIPEngine at runtime. Every node is assigned a node ID which is used in place of the string name at runtime. The SHIPEngine has no knowledge of the string names that are specified in SHIPTide projects.
