GameObject to Object

Ability to convert GameObject to Object (or simply set Object not only via drag&drop) is missing and still very important.

Hi,

 What exactly are you after when converting a gameObject to Object?

 also, drag and drop is one way, the other way is via the normal unity selector window. Or mabye I do not understand your questoin properly... :)

 Bye,

 Jean

Hello,

I would also very much like the ability to Get an Object.

I think this is what he is asking for.

PlayMaker has the ability use an Object variable, and some Actions require an Object instead of a GameObject (ie Set Property).

But there is no way to Get an Object and store it in a variable! Should be a very basic function.

Just want to Get the Object owner of a GameObject, and store that Object inside an Object Variable. That's it.

I didn't knew how to explain this then but in meantime Alex solved my problem yet by adding action called "Get Component"
it's available here:
