Actors that are user focused and are passively interacted with are terminals. Players interact with these actors differently than the other energy actors within the world. After charging a interaction point, these terminals will create an interaction zone, which the player must stand under. This will then activate the player event which differs depending on the type of terminal it is.
All terminals have interaction zones that tell the player where to stand in order to use the terminal, which outlines the ways in which the players character would interact within the world itself.
Upgrade Terminals are terminals that the player gains abilities from that impacts the gameplay. Upon stepping on the terminal the player will be granted an upgrade depending on the type of terminal it is and the ability set within the terminal.
Unlock terminals provide ability upgrades to the player. These are new abilities for the player to use that are directly tied to new controller inputs. The type of unlock is selected using a Gameplay Tag Container that can be chosen from the defaults tab on the actor.
