Lists of INSTANCES of ScriptableObject Assets In RUNTIME, Saving and loading those instances in List

[Duffer123_1]

@PraetorBlue , I’ve gone away and found what I think I was after. What I think I was asking was how to get a unique List of instances of ScriptableObject assets… (by the name of the asset rather than the name of the ScriptableObject type…)

Anyway, I found these two links the most on-point so I set them out below for anyone’s future reference:-

[SOLVED] Unique Instances of ScriptableObject asset

Derp, Thats what I get for posting before coffee! You can just use Object.Instantiate(item) when you want an instance of the .asset. Item NewUniqueItem = Object.Instantiate(AppleAsset) That gives you a unique instance of the Apple and you can adjust it all you want. The Item system I made looks like this: public virtual int AddItem(string name, int amount = 1) { return AddItem(ItemUtility.FindItemByName(name), amount); } This bounces to the other AddItem() method…
