# Health Framework

{% hint style="info" %}
It's not necessary to understand how the health system works to begin creating damageable items and vehicles. You can skip this section if you wish and come back later if you need clarification.
{% endhint %}

The four core components of the Health system are:

* **Health** - added to a vehicle to manage all its damageable components
* **Damageable** - a single damageable component
* **Damage Receiver** - added to colliders to connect damage with damageables
* **Health Modifier** - added to weapon components to hold damage/healing properties
