Description

The Serialize method in the Component class is responsible for converting the component's state into a JSON representation. This method is useful for saving the state of a component, which can later be restored or transferred. The method takes a SerializeOptions parameter, which allows customization of the serialization process.

Usage

To use the Serialize method, you need to call it on an instance of a Component and pass the appropriate SerializeOptions. The method will return a JsonNode that represents the serialized state of the component.

Example

// Assuming 'component' is an instance of a class derived from Component
var options = new GameObject.SerializeOptions();
JsonNode serializedData = component.Serialize(options);

// You can now use 'serializedData' to save the component's state or send it over a network.
