Playmaker 2.0

[THEIPHONE]

Hello, thank you for telling me what you know about playmaker 2 but i wanted to know from a developer of playmaker to directly say if playmaker 2 is still in the works.

It's my personal opinion, I think PM doesn't need v2 upgrade. PM1.94 is fully enough for me for various tasks, I only need constant minor bug updates, more integrated features like "Ecosystem" inside PM.
Just want to say thank you to Alex and his team for this super logical development solution.
BTW you can communicate with PM world in Discord either

Is there any news on playmaker 2.0?

[igud71]

Hi,

I am also interested in news on this:
Roadmap from your site is:
PlayMaker 2.0
Graph View grouping.
New Graph View nodes (groups, colors, comments, controls...)
New Variable and Events list items (groups, colors, embedded images...)
Native Pooling.
Native Tweening.
Backward compatible with PlayMaker v1 projects.

Also, most new user are complaining about old tutorials (for us long time users of Playmaker this is not a problem).
I think that, from hutonggames company perspective, releasing new version will be source of new income because your huge user base will upgrade to new version.

I think new videos and tuts have been in the making and been released already. They are top notch (check the official youtube channel).

Native Tweening and Pooling is already here (I personally don't use them though).

And for Playmaker 2.0, the only thing I actually really would like to see is the Graph View Grouping and some neater UI design similar to bolt.

An additional goodie, if something like this is possible at all, is, if users could add tags to the action (in plain English). So if you search for "jump" or "run" all related actions come up. Sometimes as a rookie it's difficult to know what to search for in Unity or C# terms.

As others have said before though, I am happy with the plugin how it is as long as we get support throughout new Unity versions.

Having said this, I also would pay for version 2.0 in a heartbeat.

One essential feature that Playmaker 2 should have is native Jobs System support.

For example, a "FSM Job" or "FSM Job Template", and being able to call these jobs created with playmaker actions from within playmaker itself would be great.

what's the latest news about PlayMaker2.0？

[antus]

I am very curious about whether the Variables Manager of version 2.0 has been improved. I currently have an FSM with 70 variables in the Variables Manager. Now the Variables Manager is very sluggish. Now in the Variables Manager, you can set the category for variables. This setting is indeed very useful. For a Variables Manager with 70 variables, this list is still too long. I propose that in the future version 2.0, the category can be collapsible. And in the State Inspector, just like using the slash (/) symbol in variable names, it can be used to hierarchize or organize variable names.

[antus]

In version 2.0, I recommend adding an FSM Controls Advanced Edition.
Currently, for larger game projects with dozens of FSMs or more.
setting certain FSM variables requires locating specific game objects, FSMs, and variables, Searching for them takes an enormous amount of time and is absolutely maddening.
I suggest adding an editor interface in the future 2.0 version that would allow users to gather all critical variables in the project into a single, consolidated view.

These are two good suggestions antus. I, huh, suggest posting them in the appropriate subforum though: Feature Requests
