Guide: Character Path Editor

Added 2019-09-01 02:14:17 +0000 UTC

Before we continue, this guide assumes you have the newest version of the Senza Pack, but if you don't/aren't using it, you'll need to quickly made a "CharacterPath" script, which contains a public Vector2 list called "pathNodes."

So, in this case, you can add a "CharacterPath" component to an object, but you can't see the waypoints themselves, which is a real pain when you'd like to know what you're DOING. So let's fix that!

First, make a "Editor" folder, make a "CharacterPathEditor" script inside it, and open it up.

This is a great start if we were making a normal component, but we're not! So we're throwing about half of this in the garbage immediately!

But before we go any further with OnSceneGUI(), we need to put together a very important function: ShowPoint(). This handles how each point is presented and allows it to be grabbed and dragged around.

Let's head back to OnSceneGUI()!

Let's return to OnSceneGUI() once again.

We can still do just a bit more! Down in the ShowPoint() function, let's add this after "point" is defined~

And we're done!

Thank you so much for waiting! If you have the Senza pack, you can try this out immediately with the Path Tester script. The raw files (with some additions) will be provided to the Mischief Maker and higher tiers very very shortly.
