# StatusEffectDatabase

### Description

For most use cases the StatusEffectDatabase can be ignored as it automatically handles adding and removing [StatusEffectDatas](/status-effects-framework/type-specifics/scriptable-objects/statuseffectdata.md). However, if dynamically adding and removing from the database is desired (for example with addressables) it can easily be done. To begin changing the database simply call the static method **StatusEffectDatabase.Get()**. The asset will always be located in the `Assets/Resources/` folder.

{% hint style="warning" %}
For Netcode, additional work will need to be done to sync across client and server. A sample for how this could be done would closely resemble [Unity's sample for dynamic prefab loading](https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/com.unity.multiplayer.samples.bitesize/tree/main/Basic/DynamicAddressablesNetworkPrefabs).
