Known issues
Nothing special for this version
As with the previous experimental drops, this is work in progress that we share to engage in an open discussion with our community. Expect issues and weird workflows as we work our way up to a more final product.
Most notably, we are still far from the final user experience, the complexity you see here is not representative of what we want to deliver. We have not yet created high level nodes to reduce the number of operations or finalized our UI to make interactions as intuitive they can be.
So kindly take note of the usual disclaimers:
Not for production use.
Early picture of Visual Scripting, not be representative of the final version.
You will need to be tech savvy to use this version. Not yet ready for everyone.
I’m a bit confused, why develop nodes that support the legacy input system when, by the time this is released, the new input system will likely become the default for the editor? The new system is also quite visual in the set up of actions and bindings so if anything it compliments visual scripting way better.
On top of what I said in my previous post, the input system team are apparently looking at supporting DOTS for their package in the future. These developments need to be aligned better IMHO.
2020.1 is not supported for that drop. There is a lot of new features that unfortunately breaks Visual Scripting and we need to tackle theses for the next drop.
I’ll have a look at that one, there is a lot of unknown still there with coroutines but we smash the bugs as we see them. can you provide the graph where you had that issue?
We’re aware. We decided to ship a work around using the old system while waiting for the new system to be DOTS ready in order to enable early users and get feedback. Swapping the implementation of a few input nodes won’t be that much work for us.
Thank you for the report. Have you connected the Move To “translation” port ? if you’re using the current query translation, just remove it, it will be used by default anyway.
Hello, Where can I get information to start the tests? How to do to move my character at least. … sorry my english. What I want to say is that, I want to implement visualscripting tests to make my character move. Where will we get information? Thank you. Is posible test in 2D?
Bug report: I created a custom Function(as above), after saving and building all, 1) the customFunction used in the main thread turned into a error node and lost its connections with other nodes. 2) I cannot select or delete this bug node.
