Editor: Changing GameObject property through script
Hey,
what I wanna do is the following:
public override void OnInspectorGUI()
{
Object[] skillsObj = Resources.LoadAll("Skills",typeof(GameObject));
string[] skillNames = new string[skillsObj.Length];
int i = 0;
foreach(Object skill in skillsObj)
{
skillNames[i] = skill.name;
i++;
}
EditorGUI.BeginChangeCheck();
index = EditorGUILayout.Popup("Skill:",index, skillNames, EditorStyles.popup);
if(EditorGUI.EndChangeCheck())
{
(this.target as EnemyClass).setRangedSkill((GameObject)skillsObj[index]);
}
}
This works fine, as long as I don't hit the play button.
If I hit play, the variable I assign through the "setRangedSkill" function always gets changed to the value of the game object I am editing. So if I choose an option and then hit the "Apply" Button for the prefabs, everything works fine. But I just want to update this specific object, not the prefab.
Where am I making a mistake?
I read an issue like this just a few minutes ago. Try setting the isDirty variable to true inside your gameobject when you change the variable. This will cause it to serialize its data.
Edit: EditorUtility.SetDirty( target );
