KIND Texture

KIND Texture defines a single texture as an asset that can be referenced from another asset or via scripting.

Making a texture available as an asset may reduce resource requirements where the texture is used by a number of assets, and may assist in maintaining consistency between different variations of the same basic asset. KIND Texture-group serves a similar function where there are multiple textures associated with a group of assets.
