Title: GetProperty can't get MonoBehaviour property from component
Post by: nickfourtimes on March 12, 2019, 03:38:53 PM

Heya, I have a UI component that links to the UI components around it:

Code: [Select]

using UnityEngine;

public class MyComp : MonoBehaviour {
    public MyComp up;
    public MyComp down;
    public MyComp left;
    public MyComp right;
}
In my FSM, I have an Object variable set to MyComp type. What I want to do is use GetProperty to get, say, the "up" MyComp.

However, when I use the GetProperty action, the Property drop-down doesn't show up, down, left, or right as accessible variables. Am I making wrong assumptions about the GetProperty action, or is something not set up correctly?

Hi.
the Get Property does not know what variable type MyComp is.

You can convert to a standard variable inside the script (string, int, float, etc)

or you can make a custom action to get the variables.

We should support your example use case... let me double-check and hopefully get it into the next update.
