## Properties
The property page's model list shows each model's icon: for a player-built model (or a car or rocket) the icon the UGC
server made of it (the item's icon until it has), with its UGC state and a link to it on the UGC page. The character
page's inventories (models, vault models and the brick building ones included) show creations the same way.

**Scenery.** The property 3D view (and the showcase's) draws the zone around the property as the game does: every
scene object's model and the zone's sky, from the game client's files (needs `client_location`). Models load nearest

### Finding creations and showing them elsewhere
**UGC Search** (`/ugc_search`, in the menu under Properties, `properties_view`; `?q=` fills the search in) finds
players' creations with `GET /api/ugc_links/search?q=`. A number matches the UGC / blueprint id, a placed model's
object id, the property it is placed on, the creator's character or account id, or a LOT (a model placed as that LOT,
or a car or rocket with that module); text matches the creator's character and account names, property names, the
name and description a player gave a placed model and the upload's file name. `owner:`, `property:`, `model:`, `id:`
and `lot:` search one field. Each result has its icon, state, creator and where it is: placed on a property (from
`properties_contents`), attached to a mail (a car's or rocket's subkey, a model item's blueprint in the attachment's
config) or in its creator's inventories (their saved XML); anything else is "Not found" (traded, sold or deleted).
Results, the property page and the character page link to a creation on the UGC page as
`/ugc?item=<id>&kind=model|modular`, for the page to open that item.
What the UGC server made shows on the pages that show a creation, to whoever may view that page:
* The property page: each player-built model's icon, state and link (`GET /api/ugc_links/property/<property id>`).
* The property 3D view: made models are drawn from their NIF (`GET /api/ugc_links/mesh/<ugc id>?property=`),
switchable with **Generated models** (see docs/Dashboard.md); the rest from their LXFML.
* The character page's inventories: creations get their icon and link (`GET /api/ugc_links/character/<character id>`).
A model item is known by its blueprint (`blueprintid`, which the item now keeps in its saved config as `x@bp`); a car
or rocket by its subkey (its `ugc_modular_build` id).
Icons come from `GET /api/ugc_links/icon/model|modular/<id>` (the UGC server's `icon.png`, fetched by the dashboard
like the `/ugc` page's files). It is served with `properties_view`, for a creation one of your own characters made, or
with `?property=<id>` / `?character=<id>` naming a page you may view (properties: `properties_view`, or the owner with
`own_properties`; characters: `characters_view`, or your own) that holds it. Until the UGC server has made an icon the
pages show the item's own icon.
## Not done yet
* Worlds still send every model's LXFML to the client on property load and don't set `renderUserGen`, so the client
