    If you want the script on the asset at spawn time. You will need to either create a copy of the asset with the script already attached or update the current asset after attaching the script. Let me see if I can get some screenshots.

    EDIT: If you right click on the asset, click on Edit Template Definition then you should be able to add the script and save the change.

Hey, 

Thanks for the suggestions.

When I right click my asset (a 3d model) I see this "Place", "remove", "Replace", "Remove" but not edit template definition.

    Oh I think I figured out. I had to click edit template definition in the hierachy, not the Asset. My bad.

    Also to create an asset I had to right click the asset in the Hierarchy and select "Create Asset". That was the part that lost me

     

    Thank you for the help!!

    Is that an asset you created in a sub-D world? The icon looks different. If so, you might have to update the asset in headset. If it is just an asset you had imported, you might have to bring it into a world and then create an asset from it first. You may have to unlink it before creating it as an asset.
