The Active property of a Component in the Sandbox API indicates whether the component is currently enabled and all of its ancestor GameObjects are also enabled. This property is useful for determining if a component is truly active in the scene, as it considers the enable state of the component itself and its hierarchy of parent objects.
Use the Active property to check if a component is fully active in the scene. This is particularly useful when you need to ensure that a component is operational and its parent GameObject is not disabled.
// Example of checking if a component is active
Component myComponent = someGameObject.GetComponent<MyComponent>();
if (myComponent.Active)
{
// Perform actions knowing the component is active
myComponent.DoSomething();
}
