Hi there,
Hopefully simple question–is there a way to get the Visual Effect package (VFX Graph) types to show up in the Visual Scripting graphs?
All I want to do is to be able to trigger an event for the VFX graph from visual scripting. In the below example the script is going to trigger a VFX event when an animation event is triggered.
In this sample graph I can hook up the variable just as a generic Component to pass into a custom node I’ve made to trigger. This does work however it’s a bit cumbersome.
This does work in tandem with my custom Unit/Node. Typing in a variable name in the inspector repeatedly is, well, a bit cumbersome. I know this is a common enough workflow with visual scripting, but I’m curious for something a bit better.
It would be easier if I could just define a Graph Variable for the VFX graph asset or to link to the Visual Effect component.
Basically it would be great if I could define “VisualEffect” as the type in the variable here to make inspector linking much more efficient.
I have already added the VisualEffectGraph asmdefs to my node preferences in the Visual Scripting Settings but nothing appears–it seems something is missing perhaps on this package’s side of things.;
This could easily be done from a C# script of course, but I’m trying to explore options with the visual scripting specifically for this. Also not sure if this would be better asked in the visual scripting forum.
