Usage

The Transform field is set like this in entity .xml files.

<InheritTransformComponent>
    <Transform
        position.x="8"
        position.y="0"
        rotation="0"
        scale.x="1"
        scale.y="1" >
    </Transform>
</InheritTransformComponent>

You can also get/change the transform field from Lua like this:

local  x, y, scale_x, scale_y, rot = ComponentGetValue2(inherit_trans_comp, "Transform")
x = x + 1
y = -y
ComponentSetValue2(inherit_trans_comp, "Transform", x, y, scale_x, scale_y, rot)
