Title: Get Host Info
Post by: Lane on January 19, 2015, 07:51:10 PM

Pull information about the Host FSM when the current FSM is operating as a Sub FSM. This is useful for returning variables from a Sub FSM upward to the Host FSM Object easily.

Also on Ecosystem.

Seems just what I want, all the fields work and return strings, except Game Object, it seems to return nothing for me.

That's odd. I'll look into it when I get back in the country.

I did a quick test, and noticed there's this error in the console. See the screenshot. I've included a package file that has a scene and template.
This was made using 1.8.0.f21

Looks like you're trying to run it on the Host Object? You should be using this on the template to retrieve information about the Host.

On the host gameobject all I have is a Run FSM action running the template that contains the GetHostInfo.
You can see the host gameobject fsm is "Host:FSM", and the screenshot is from the template being run "Host:FSM:FSM"

Ignore the console errors, I had another gameobject that was running the template on itself.

I appreciate the time you're putting in to check this out by the way!
