Question by ina · Jun 10, 2011 at 08:07 AM · gameobjecteditorinstantiateeditor-scriptingide

in-editor cloning of game objects

How do you use a script to clone objects not during run time, but to just set up a scene in the editor?

I dont quite understand what it is you want, scripts only run at runtime?

But if you want to clone a gameobject in the editor, then just use copy/paste?

well, if you want to put gameobjects in a circle, it is easier to just set them using script.

You may want to look into custom inspector views.

In all editor scripts (you'll need to place these scripts under /Assets/Editor) you have access to these editor classes that can do almost anything in the editor.

So create a custom inspector, add a GUI button to it that will clone something you want and you're done.
