Major edit: Started missing section 'Predefined Part Names', wikified important terms, added buttons and icons for better visual identification
'''Parts provides ''' provide a kind of grouping system for Model and [[Documentation/Tools/SCS_Blender_Tools/Locators|Locator ]] objects. It is They are usually used for in defining of [[Documentation/Tools/SCS_Blender_Tools/Variant_system|Variants (see the chapter “Variant System” below) and also ]] but, in [[#predefined_part_names|special cases]], when we need they are also used to define a part parts of the geometry, that has to have a different treating then will be treated differently than the rest of the model (see the chapter “Predefined Part Names”).
Every object in a scene belongs to some Part. Even in case cases when we don't need to use Parts, there is always a Part name assigned to every object in a scene. The default name is “defaultpart”, but it can be changed any time. If the active object is not parented to any [[Documentation/Tools/SCS_Blender_Tools/Terminology_and_basics#SCS_Root_Object|SCS Root Object]], then it is not possible to set the Part name for such that object.

== Part list ==
[[Image:SCS_Tools_Object_Specials_-_Parts_05.png|right]]There is a '''Part list is held on every List''' for each SCS Root Object and it which contains all the Part names, which are used within this its respective SCS Game Object.
=== Add, Remove, Rename Parts ===
You can {{Blender_Button|[[File:Blend_icon_zoomin.png]]}} '''''Add''''' or {{Blender_Button|[[File:Blend_icon_zoomout.png]]}} '''''Remove''''' names from the Part list using the buttons on the right side of the list. The lowest button here is a {{Blender_Button|[[File:Blend_icon_file_refresh.png]]}} '''''Remove Unused''''' button, which will automatically remove any unused Part names. To '''''Rename''''' the existing Part just double click the item in the list and type a new name.
=== Additional list tools ===
There are also some additional tools integrated for each item in the Part list and which can be used for easy selection/deselection (arrow icon[[File:Blend_icon_restrict_select_off.png]]) or hiding/showing (eye icon[[File:Blend_icon_restrict_view_off.png]]) of particular Parts. It works like a switches, so if it is pressed repeatedly it will select and deselect or hide and show all the Part items. With '''''{{Key_press|Shift''''' }} pressed it will always add to the existing selection or always show the Part items and with '''''{{Key_press|Ctrl''''' }} it will always subtract from existing selection or always hide the Part items.
=== Item-selection tools ===
If the active object is Model, Model Locator or Collision Locator object additional buttons appear.
{{Blender_Button|Assign}} Assigns currently selected Part name to selected object(s). For multiple selections, all selected objects must belong to the same SCS Root Object. {{Blender_Button|Select}} Selects all Models, Model Locators and Collision Locators within active SCS Game Object which uses the same Part name. {{Blender_Button|Deselect}} Deselects all Models, Model Locators and Collision Locators within active SCS Game Object which uses the same Part name. === Assign =Predefined Part Names ==
=== Select Trucks ===There are currently no predefined part names used for trucks.
