Logical

The Logical data type is used to represent boolean values — values that can be either true or false. It is suitable for modeling simple binary states, conditions, or flags commonly used throughout game data.

Use Cases

The Logical type is ideal for:

  • Representing simple state: Examples include IsActive, IsPublished, IsLatest, IsReligious, or IsOptional.

  • Indicating ownership or structural conditions: Examples include HasPartner, HasSecondPhase.

  • Controlling behavioral expectations: Examples include ShouldFinishTutorial, ShouldGoFirst.

  • Defining capabilities or permissions: Examples include CanBlock, CanRun, CanBeSold.

This makes the Logical type a versatile and lightweight choice for many decision-driven properties in schema design.

Comparison with MultiPickList

While the MultiPickList data type can represent combinations of multiple states, the Logical type is recommended when the property has exactly two possible values. Using Logical ensures simplicity, clarity, and optimal editor behavior for binary flags.
