Keep data created at runtime in ScriptableObjects?
I have a few ScriptableObjects that represent different items with properties in my project. These ScriptableObjects are referenced in a few lists in the scene, and called when needed to keep them in memory.
For a few different reasons, I need every ScriptableObject in my project to have a unique ID. I've noticed that modifying a ScriptableObject data at runtime modifies the Asset in the project explorer such that in repeated plays, I can use the same property again and again.
I've written a script that assigns a unique ID to every ScriptableObject. I just need to run this code once, so I've simply referenced the lists and run it on a separate scene to fill every ScriptableObject with a unique System.Guid. This changes the Asset in the editor and I can use the unique ID afterwards in repeated plays inside the editor.
However, my runtime-generated unique ID disappears after compilation or after closing and opening the editor. My question is: How can I keep my runtime-generated IDs inside the ScriptableObject for repeated use?
Hello, ScriptableObject save only works in Unity Editor. When you'll build the project, scriptable objects won't be saved anymore. Anyway, have you tried to store the unique ID in a string instead of inside System.Guid ?
I recommand this tutorial on scriptable objects taht will explain everything : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ItZbTYO0Mnw I do also recommand storing datas in a binary file. This will work outside the editor to. I recommand this tutorial : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWWZZByVvlU
I hope that i've answered to your question.
