Class ObjectEntity

Name: ObjectEntity
Definition: Material entity that does not shape the space where it is located, not influencing visibility or mobility over it.
Is abstract: Yes
Aspects:
Comments: An object entity does not alter the visbility or mobility over the surrounding area, as opposed to structure entities. The concept of object entity roughly corresponds to what is often referred to as 'movable element'. This term, however, is difficult to define as it is based on a characteristic (i.e. the movability of things) that is circumstantial and prone to exceptions.
