====== Named Entity Kind - Code References ======

===== Java Classes =====

  * [[https://github.com/NYRDS/remixed-dungeon/blob/master/RemixedDungeon/src/main/java/com/nyrds/pixeldungeon/mechanics/NamedEntityKind.java|NamedEntityKind.java]]

<code java>
// In NamedEntityKind.java
package com.nyrds.pixeldungeon.mechanics;

public interface NamedEntityKind {
    String getEntityKind(); //this one for machines
    String name(); //this one for humans
}
</code>

**Interface Definition:**
  * Package: `com.nyrds.pixeldungeon.mechanics`
  * Methods:
    * `getEntityKind()` — returns the machine-readable entity kind identifier (e.g. used for serialization, factory lookup, JSON configuration matches)
    * `name()` — returns the human-readable name used in UI and logs

===== JSON Configuration =====

The `NamedEntityKind` interface does not have JSON configuration. It is:
  * A Java interface implemented by base game entity classes (mobs, items, buffs, spells, etc.)
  * Used as a common contract for identifying and naming entities

===== String Resources =====

The `NamedEntityKind` interface does not reference string resources directly. The `name()` method is typically implemented in subclasses to return values from string resources via `StringsManager.getVar(R.string.XXX)`.

===== Lua Scripts =====

The `NamedEntityKind` interface is implemented entirely in Java. No Lua scripts use it directly.
