Entity's are created using '''EntityFactory.createEntity()'''. In this method, the appropriete implementation class is created, and initialize.

The design is being transitioned to a Model-View-Controller (MVC) like framework. This will allow different visual implementations (like 2D, 3D, 4D?) to be plugged in with minimal (or no) changes of the model class.

The '''initialize()''' method is called with the RPObject that it will represent. This method is called after the constructor returns, but before anything else is [externally] called.

When the client no longer needs the entity, it should call '''release()''', which should handling any cleanup that garbage collection only is insufficient.

The class gets notified of object changes via the '''RPObjectChangeListener''' interface that it implements. This will be called for all changes to it's object (and immediate slot objects).

The user interface (UI) is responsible for bringing together the base client and user interaction. The base class is '''StendhalUI''', and is extended by an appropriete implementation (currently j2DClient).
