editor.build

Handler for triggering editor build operations (lighting, geometry, reflection captures, texture streaming, HLODs, navigation) and querying build status.

← API Reference

`editor.build.buildAll`

Trigger a full editor build (lighting, geometry, paths, HLODs, etc.).

No parameters.

Returns

Field	Type	Description
`success`	boolean	Whether the build completed successfully
`build_type`	string	Always "all"

Example Request

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "editor.build.buildAll",
  "params": {}
}

Example Response

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "result": {

  "method": "editor.build.buildGeometry",
  "params": {}
}

`editor.build.buildReflectionCaptures`

Rebuild all reflection captures in the current level.

No parameters.

Returns

Field	Type	Description
