How to add a bound property or field to Blackboard via script?

Hi, I’m just trying to simplify some of my workflow, so instead of manually going in and adding the things by hand I can just click an editor button when I want to setup a new blackboard. I can easily add a variable, but the bound aspect is somewhat beyond me, couldn’t quite figure out the reflection editor code when delving into BlackboardEditor.cs

m_Blackboard.AddVariable(“isDead”, m_Character.isDead);
So essentially how would I turn the above into a bound field?

Hello,

Here is how you can create a variable and then bind it to a property or field.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13

//The test property public bool isDead;   [ContextMenu("DO")] public void Do(){ var bb = GetComponent<Blackboard>(); var variable = bb.AddVariable("isDead", isDead); //1st parameter is the PropertyInfo or FieldInfo. //2nd parameter is the "target" gameobject which has a component which that property/field resides. variable.BindProperty( this.GetType().GetField("isDead"), this.gameObject ); }

Let me know if that works for you.
Thank you.
