Title: [Solved] Call Method but specify gameobject at runtime?
Post by: shinodan on January 25, 2018, 10:11:49 AM

Howdy folks.

Just wondering if there is anything i can do to the call method action script to allow me to specify this gameobject at runtime, i tested dragging over the object at runtime and then activating the call method and it worked the way i had hoped but because my environment is getting generated at runtime i need to be able to specify that value automatically somehow.

Myself i am currently trying to look into the code to see if i can create a public gameobject var then change it to run off that object upon activation. (on the meshcombine code)

In the picture i have highlighted the bit i mean, if that was the specify var box i would have no problem :(

Hi,

 I think you have an old version of PLayMaker, it's there on my version:

I think i have solved it by setting the gameobject array first instead of the gameobject itself. I was then able to set the array at runtime with the object as its perimeter :)

Thanks for help!

Hi,
Could you show part of the script code, how you got the parameters working?

Hi Djay,

In the end i didn't need to touch any script, it is an asset script called "Runtime Mesh Batcher" - https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/en/#!/content/26200 (https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/en/#!/content/26200) for $5 or so.

I have then just attached the script to an object and passed the perimeters through with the call method action like the screenshot :|

Hope that helps!
