Top level state

Top level state is accessible everywhere inside of a template. State is public by default which means that when a template is used, public state can be extruded. When using the :private visibility modifier state fields cannot be extruded.

template StatefulExample : CompanionType {

    state float value; // define template-local state field 
    
    state float valueWithDefault = 100f;
    
    state:private string privateState = "Not visible outside of this template";
    
    // top level state can also be mapped to a companion field 
    state string itemName from $companion; // if no field/property name is provided, it assumes you want the 'itemName' field/property from the companion
    state string itemRarity from $companion.rarity; // if a field/property name is provided, that will be used

    // you can both map a companion field and provide a default value like this:
    state int itemValue from $companion = 100;
        
}
