This is fascinating:smile:, any job system support? It would be useful to improve multithread performance by delegating FSMs in this way.

That last screenshot reminded me of the ECS, so is there a possibility of supporting ECS? (I donā€™t think so, but it doesnā€™t hurt to ask:p)

Soon :slight_smile: I donā€™t want to give an exact date yet, but Iā€™ll post updates.

The update model is much more flexible so it should be possible. But it will be after the 2.0 release.

Not immediately in 2.0, but it is a longer term goal.

Will Playmaker 2 integrate scriptable objects further for events and variables so they can be used more directly with c# scripts as outlined by Ryan Hipple in Unite Austin 2017? I think that would make it indestructible. :slight_smile:

Edit: And maybe more importantly: will we be able to upgrade Playmaker 1 projects? Pretty please?

Yes, global events and variables are scriptable objects, so they can be easily referenced in non playmaker scripts. We also use a project database to track all references, so you can quickly find where events and variables are used. And thereā€™s UI to see event subscribers, send test events etc.

We need to lock down 2.0 features first, but upgrading of 1.0 projects is on my radar.
