Problem with GET FSM VARIABLE
« on: March 21, 2019, 12:31:59 PM »
It doesn't find it.

I have an object, "MAP GEN", and on this object I have a FSM called "MAP GEN" as well, and in this FSM there is a variable Vector3 named "MAP GEN POS".

On another object, named "GEN BASE" I add a state where there is this GET FSM VARIABLE action, but apparently it doesn't find the variable.
I have already added this variable here, Vector3 of course, but it doesn't appear in the menu and it asks to make a new one.
If I try to give the same name, of course it doesn't allow me.

I checked and rechecked everything, FSM names etc., but I can't find why this thing doesn't work.

Also: why is this forum dead? Playmaker is not having success?
Feels like I'm the only one using this forum... are you all using a chat or what?

I tried to remove the variable in the referencing FSM, and create it with the menu option from the action.
It creates an INTEGER variable, which is wrong, because on the original FSM the variable is a Vector3.
If I try to change it and correct it to Vector3, the connection is lost in the action and can't be set up back again.

Maybe it's a bug?

I'll look into this.

In the meantime try using Get Fsm Vector3 instead...
