Odorant Box

Odorant Box is the most basic of all the odorant components and is generally used for background scents the user should only perceive on subconscious to just barely noticeable level. Because of this, making precise zones of ambient odors is not so important. To define this zone of odor, a Box Size is defined along with an Offset in the inspector. The Offset allows for one game-object to contain a collection of background odors with or without overlap. Maximum Thresholds for ambient scents should be relatively low as to not distract the user from other in-game interactions.
