WhileInside property for ProximityTriggers

What is the function of the WhileInside property of ProximityTriggers?

Maybe it fires if the object is in the area when the trigger gets activated?

Hello.

Yes, WhileInsideActions will be called every frame when the object is inside the defined area.
We're sorry for the lack of documentation on the subject, that's something we'll work on in the coming months.

Regards,
Sylvain

Hi Sylvain,

your edit now makes more sense compared to the previous version (OnEnterAction vs. WhileInsideActions).

I wonder about the use case? What is the sense behind triggering something every frame?
