An entity is an item that stores a collection of values (hereafter referred to as "fields") that can represent a game object/camera rail in Crash 2 and 3.

Type

The format and usage of the field data depends on the field type. Incomplete list.

Type Name Purpose Format
0x2C Name String of characters for the internal name used to refer to the entity. It has no purpose so whatever you put here won't affect the game UTF-8 charset
0x4B Position List of position points to be used by the entity. Multiple of these can be used to make the entity follow a path (as long as it is programmed to do so) Int16 for each X, Y and Z coordinate
0x9F ID Value to uniquely identify the entity that is used to draw it, destroy it (see victims below) and other miscellaneous behaviors Int321
0xA4 General Settings List of values that can be used to change a certain object's behavior (i.e. flags, delay, speed) Int32 (UInt8 + Int24)
0xA9 Type Type of the entity Int32
0xAA Subtype Variant of the entity Int32
0x287 Victim List of entity IDs to destroy on certain occasions (i.e. TNT is undrawn, Nitro Switch activated) Int16

1 - Draw lists store this as an Int16, so setting this to a value higher than that will cause severe issues.
