Primitives

These functions serve as the base upon which all other instructions are built. They are the core commands that are built into the game engine, and cannot be viewed or edited. Primitives can be called from any SimAntics procedure using the OpCodes listed below. Many of these instructions have an instruction wizard () to assist with programming the instruction.
