Find Game Object doesn't look for disabled objects?

[brisck1]

I'm having some major issues with the "Find Game Object" action at the moment.

It seems to be set to ignore disabled objects by default, which is a little annoying since I need some objects disabled by default.
So anyway, I decided to then try starting with my objects enabled, finding them in the FSM with Find Game Object & storing as Var's, and then disabling them from the FSM (using Activate Game Object + vars).

So far so good, but then next problem comes when I try to re-enable them again later using Activate Game Object: nothing happens! I can't get the objects to re-enable using the variables stored from the Find Game Object action. Again I think this could be something to do with them being disabled?

scratch that last part, but is there any way that Find Game Object could look for disabled objects?

On further experimentation with Find Object I have had to abandon it's use altogether. For some reason, activating and deactivating objects using the stored variable was very random. Sometimes I couldn't re-active an object after disabling it and sometimes I could but then other actions affecting that object wouldn't work. I thought I'd found an awesome action there that could have saved me a lot of time

Hi,

 It's a Unity restrictions, you can'f find a gameobject that is not active. You have to have a reference of it prior it's disabled.

It would be cool to add this "detail/restriction" in the BB documentation to avoid people wasting time searching the solution on google/the forum.
