Subsections

The HHelpers class is split into several sections (using nested classes) to improve organization. They are as follows:

• Top-level helpers - These are mostly methods which use Reflection to find, access, and manipulate types & members.
• AssetHandling helpers - These deal with XNA assets, such as Texture2D.
• StringDrawing helpers - These assist in drawing text with ReLogic's subclassed DynamicSpriteFonts.
• InputReading helpers - These get information about the local player's input, such what Keys are currently held.
• UIState helpers - These provide information about how the local player is currently interacting with the ingame gui.
