PrimitiveKind

enum Core/Vixen.Rendering/MeshPrimitives.cs:23
csharp
public enum PrimitiveKind

One of the shapes an engine can build rather than import.

No guide page documents this yet — the page shows what the code says about itself.

Remarks

A closed set, deliberately. These are the shapes somebody blocks a level out with and tests a material on before there is any art — not a modelling kernel. Anything that needs a shape not on this list needs a mesh asset, and the moment this enum starts growing parameters per member is the moment that has become true.

⚠ The numbers are part of the scene format. A member added in the middle would renumber every one after it and silently turn every saved cube into a sphere, so new members go on the end. The authoring format writes the name for exactly this reason — see the editor's shape component — but the values are still worth pinning.
