Can you make changes to exposed public variables persist in inspector ?
Hello,
I am trying to create system where I need to do the following:
I have public variable exposed to inspector and I want to change it via script during runtime. I want the change to persist, like it would if you changed the value manually.
I have few pictures which explain my intentions.
How my Gameobject currently looks like in the editor
Current script
public class DemoScript : MonoBehaviour
{
public List<int> List = new List<int>();
void Start()
{
// This is not persistent
List.Add(1);
}
}
Once I press play, List will update correctly on the inspector but once I stop executing ,the value will reset back to its original state.
What I am hoping to do, is to run the script and have the inspector look like this:
Is there any way to achieve this? I have googled around and browsed a lot but couldn't find any possible solution for my problem.
Here your need the scriptable object For you data. First of all make a class and inherit with ScriptableObject as in the code.
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
[CreateAssetMenu(fileName = "Data", menuName = "Inventory/integerList")]
public class MakeScritableObject : ScriptableObject {
public List<int> IntegerList = new List<int>();
}
Now you will see that in your assets menu -> create->Inventory/integerList menu created. Click on the integerList.
Now you will see that ScriptableObject is created in your project , rename as you want.When You click on the ScriptableObject then you will see the IntegerList which we declared in the MakeScritableObject class.
Now,make a class and access scriptable object data. Make MakeScritableObject instance and pass scriptableObject in hierarchy which you created from the menu.
using UnityEngine;
public class ScriptableDemo : MonoBehaviour
{
public MakeScritableObject MyListClass;
void Start()
{
MyListClass.IntegerList.Add(1);
MyListClass.IntegerList.Add(2);
MyListClass.IntegerList.Add(3);
}
}
Now Attach ScriptableDemo to any active gameObject and when you run values will be stored in your ScriptableObject.When you exit from play mode then your values will never replace.
