Redirector Assets
Redirector Assets are a special asset type only used when resolving asset references (GUIDs and legacy IDs). When an asset reference points to a redirector, the asset system instead returns the asset pointed to by the redirector.
Note
Most features do not save the resolved asset, instead they save the original asset reference. This means, for example, that redirecting some objects and re-saving a level will save the original object references, not the redirected objects.

Note that TargetAsset is required for this asset to function.

TargetAsset GUID
GUID of actual asset to use when an asset reference points to the redirector asset.
