best pratice to update FSM vars?
« on: April 24, 2018, 09:33:22 AM »
Hello everyone,
I'm just wondering if there isn't a best way to find updated fsm values than to put the declaration in the update loop?

If i want to check if at anytime if an FsmBool is true like this :
Code: [Select]
FsmBool isMoving = MyFsm.FsmVariables.FindFsmBool("isMoving").Value;do I always have to put it in an update() loop?

Hi,

 A better way is to only get it when you need it, instead of every update.

 and if you cache the Fsmbool in a private variable, and find the fsmbool once, and then get its value on update, it will be a lot more performant and totally fine actually.


 Bye,

 Jean
