Public Attributes
bool	active
	If true, the Entity actually exists within the game world. Within the specific entity array, if active is false, the entity is junk data. Always check active if iterating over the entity array. Another option for iterating is to use Main.ActivePlayers, Main.ActiveNPCs, Main.ActiveProjectiles, or Main.ActiveItems instead for simpler code.
int	direction = 1
	The direction this entity is facing. A value of 1 means the entity is facing to the right. -1 means facing to the left.
int	height
	The height of this Entity's hitbox, in pixels.
bool	honeyWet
bool	lavaWet
int	oldDirection
	The direction of this Entity during the previous tick. For projectiles with Projectile.extraUpdates, this will be the direction during the previous extra update, not necessarily the direction during the previous tick.
Vector2	oldPosition
	The position of this Entity during the previous tick. For projectiles with Projectile.extraUpdates, this will be the position during the previous extra update, not necessarily the position during the previous tick.
Vector2	oldVelocity
	The velocity of this Entity during the previous tick. For projectiles with Projectile.extraUpdates, this will be the velocity during the previous extra update, not necessarily the velocity during the previous tick.
Vector2	position
	The position of this Entity in world coordinates. Note that this corresponds to the top left corner of the entity. Use Center instead for logic that needs the position at the center of the entity.
bool	shimmerWet
Vector2	velocity
	The velocity of this Entity in world coordinates per tick.
bool	wet
	The Entity is currently in water. Projectile: Affects movement speed and some projectiles die when wet. Projectile.ignoreWater prevents this.
byte	wetCount
int	whoAmI
	The index of this Entity within its specific array. These arrays track the entities in the world. Item: unused Projectile: Main.projectile NPC: Main.npc Player: Main.player Note that Projectile.whoAmI is not consistent between clients in multiplayer for the same projectile.
int	width
	The width of this Entity's hitbox, in pixels.
