# Class ksHierarchyObject

Namespace: [KS.Reactor](/reactor/api-reference/ks.reactor.md)\
Assembly: KSCommon.dll

Non-templated base class for hierarchy objects with a parent and children. There is also a templated variant that enforces all objects in the hierarchy derive the templated type.

```csharp
public class ksHierarchyObject : ksHierarchyObject<ksHierarchyObject>
```

#### Inheritance
