Modules & Behaviours

Detalis on the modules and behaviours present in STP.

Good to know! A Character Module is a component that adds functionality to a character and can be accessed from any character component.

Good to know! A Character Behaviour is a component that interacts with a module or multiple modules but not vice versa.

Inventory

Here you'll learn what each character inventory components does.
