Use it
Code for the specimen as it is set up above; it follows your knobs.
import { createAsset } from 'https://gaitkit.com/cdn/watchtower.mjs';
const watchtower = createAsset();
scene.add(watchtower); // rests on y = 0, front faces +Zimport { useMemo } from 'react';
import { createAsset } from 'https://gaitkit.com/cdn/watchtower.mjs';
export function Watchtower() {
const model = useMemo(() => createAsset(), []);
return <primitive object={model} />;
}# Import watchtower.glb (download below). It is a static mesh, one material per colour.
add_child(preload("res://watchtower.glb").instantiate())// Import watchtower.glb with glTFast (com.unity.cloud.gltfast).
// Drop it in the scene: 1 unit = 1 metre, +Z is its front.Use the gaitkit MCP server: get_variant({ "id": "watchtower", "want": "default look" })
then place the result.
