Player Highlight Selection

The PlayerHighlightComponent is a component responsible for rendering a highlight on the current player cursor position. This highlight appears as a box that follows the player's cursor within certain bounds (maximum reach of the player). The component also has the ability to be muted or unmuted based on specific events (while in the Tractor). This is a useful feature as players can visually see the targeted tile when using items or tools.

The PlayerHighlightComponent is used in a game environment to visually highlight the player's cursor position. It utilizes a DynamicTextureRenderComponent to display the highlight, and it can be muted to turn off the highlight effect based on game events.
