SubAsset

The name of an object inside the asset, when the entry addresses one — a clip inside an .fbx, a sprite inside an atlas. Null for a whole asset.

This exists because a whole-file entry is the wrong grain for animation: the game asks for SkillAssets.Clip(path, clipName), and AssetLibrary documents what loading the file instead returns — Drink Potion.fbx holds a GameObject and an AnimationClip of the same name, so the file path resolves to the model node and the clip never arrives. A bracket is also already this codebase's name for that lookup: AssetLibrary.RequireSubAsset builds its error address as parentAddress + "[" + objectName + "]".

SubAssetType

The sub-asset's type, when the declaration names it (path[Name:AnimationClip]) — the same disambiguator the runtime key uses, AssetLibrary.KeyFor(address, type) = address|TypeName.

It is not decoration. A name alone is genuinely ambiguous: Praying End.fbx holds an Animator and an AnimationClip called Praying End, so a name match picked the Animator and the skill's clip came back null — a silent null, which is the failure this whole change exists to remove.
