Title: linked instances of a FSM ?
Post by: giordano on July 17, 2011, 04:47:05 AM

Sorry if I have missed something in the Docs, but I have a FSM that is a component on several different prefabs. Is there a way of creating a "master" FSM that I would edit and whose edits are reflected in each of its instances? (In the same way that if I have a single script attached to a number of Game Objects, when I edit the script it is updated in all of its instances)

cheers

Hi,

 Could you maybe have this fsm in its own prefab that in turn is used in other prefabs? that's how I would try to get around this.

 Bye,

unfortunately Unity does not support nested prefabs so this would not work... which is a shame as it would be an ideal solution otherwise..

Well I think global variables will be implemented at some point and I think that will solve a lot of these types of situations. I guess being able to have an instance of an FSM across several gameobjects where if one instance is updated all the other ones are too would be cool.

Uhm, did not know about the impossibility to nest prefabs... not good.
