Best Way to Load a file in as a TextAsset object?

I use Playmaker, and i'm trying to load a sql database file (.bytes) file from a folder into the game to use with some SimpleSql commands. I need to set a database property that needs a TextAsset. I can get easy save to see the file in the folder, but I am not sure how to set that file to a TextAsse...

Re: What Array Type to use with "Get Files" Playmaker Action

I used Get Array to get various indices from the array, and it works. i got index 0, 1, and 2, and they show the correct file names. For some reason it's just not showing the updated array entries on the variables page or in the inspector, and if you notice in this image it GOT the correct array ind...

Re: What Array Type to use with "Get Files" Playmaker Action

okay I'll try to put together a project to replicate it. in the meantime, here are two images of what happens at runtime. The debug line shows a list of files below the array in the action, but when checking the variables tab the array itself is unchanged from what I set it to before runtime. I foun...

What Array Type to use with "Get Files" Playmaker Action?

using a string array appears to store nothing even though I thought I was getting filename strings, and even though it seems to be the type the action will "accept". I use the Get Files action to load all the files in a path into an Array variable. The problem is, at runtime when this happ...

Re: Just Want to Save and Load the Game?

The problem I'm running into, is that I can save and load game objects into the scene from a file of saved arrays, but they have no material when loaded. so I made an array to save their materials and load them as well, but when I try to save I get this error: error instance playmaker.PNG saveable a...

Re: Just Want to Save and Load the Game?

hello. when loading an array of game objects or strings, should I use Load or Load Into? What is the functional difference? I'm using Save and Load actions so far. If I place some lines in the game (saving each go to a Line go array) then i hit Save, it seems to work. If I then delete one of the gam...

Re: Just Want to Save and Load the Game?

This is exciting. I need to save 9 total arrays; for map pieces, lines, and stamps, I need to save a name, a position v3, and a rotation v3. is it safe to save ALL of these 9 arrays into a single file? would it be reasonable to create a file with a name the user specifies and save these things to it...

Re: Just Want to Save and Load the Game?

Hey, thanks for the info. I really just need to save the vector 3 locations of a series of game objects (the map pieces) and the fact that a series of prefab "lines" have been created, oriented, and placed. Currently none of this is being saved in the scene as fsm variables. what is the si...
