Nested FlowScript question

[chocolacodeParticipant]

Hi there,

I have an FSM and a FlowScript already created in a GameObject, both of them I created as “Bound”.

Now I am editing my FSM and want to create a nested FlowScript. A new State appears that says “Create New”.

My problem is that I don’t want to create a new FlowScript. I want to be able to select my existing FlowScript. Is that possible? Can this feature be added?

Thanks in advance

Hello,

In the Nested FlowScript inspector panel, you can assign any existing flowscript you want to (not always a new one), but the flowscript assigned there has to be an asset flowscript and not a bound flowscript of a FlowScriptController in the scene.

Even though you can assign a bound flowscript of a controller in the scene, it is really not recommended for two important reasons to keep in mind:

1. The controller’s gameobject will be instantiated.
2. The variables used will be the ones of the graph the nested flowscript *node* is within (eg the FSM), not the ones of the FlowScriptController you are referencing the flowscript from.

For the above two reasons, sub-systems are designed to work with asset graphs. Is there a reason why you don’t want to use an asset graph?

Let me know if that works for you.
Thanks!

Hi there,

thanks for your detailed answer, I will start working more and more with Graph assets as you suggest,

thanks!
