Objects (Object Types & Objects)

The "Objects" section lets an administrator manage object categories (Object Types) and the specific items (Objects) inside each type. These objects can then be used across the platform where object-based mechanics are applied.

Objects are the “units” a game system can grant, store, spend, or check to drive gameplay. They work like reusable building blocks that quests/achievements/events can reference.

Typical usage:

Rewards: give a student an item after completing a quest/task (e.g., “Crystal”, “Light”).
Inventory/collection: track what the student has collected over time.
Progress mechanics: use objects as counters or tokens to unlock levels, stages, or access.
Economy: items that can be earned and withdrawn/spent (tokens, points, keys).
Conditions & triggers: “If user has X object → show scene / unlock quest / allow action”.

⚠️ Removing an Object Type or Object may affect any places where it is already used. Make sure it’s no longer needed before deleting.
