Description
Unity Behavior is a visual tool for authoring behaviors used to control non-player characters (NPCs) or objects.
Setup guide
Install Behavior package via Package Manager (Unity 6 is required)
To generate the actions for Unity Behavior, make sure you use BGDatabase version >= 1.8.13, select "Settings->Behavior", fill in parameters as shown on the screenshot below and press on Generate. "Source File" should point to a new, non-existent cs file, it will be overwritten each time you generate classes.
By default, the database actions can be found under Action/BGDatabase category
Once you chose your naming scheme package + Classes name prefix/Field name prefix
and used your generated actions in Behavior's graphs, you should not change these settings,
otherwise the references to these actions will be lost. The same applies to tables/fields names.
Which actions are generated?
Foe each table the following actions are generated
| # | Action | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GetByIndex | Retrieve field values from database by provided row's (physical) index. This is the best method to use inside for-each loop |
| 2 | GetById | Retrieve field values from database by row's id. |
| 3 | GetByName | Retrieve field values from database by row's name. |
| 4 | SetByIndex | Set field values to database by row's index. |
| 5 | SetById | Set field values to database by row's id. |
| 6 | SetByName | Set field values to database by row's name. |
| 7 | Count | Retrieve total number of rows |
| 8 | Create | Create a new row |
| 9 | Delete | Delete a row by its index |
| 10 | GetByKey | For each key a separate node is generated. This node allows to get row(s) using key's fields values |
How to use Get and Set actions
Each database field has 2 corresponding variables in Get/Set actions, one for the value itself and another one for a boolean flag,
indicating that you want to get/set this value. To initialize value transfer, you need to
- Turn on the flag
- For "GetXXX" actions you also need to assign the variable to "field value" parameter
