Editor fields not updating while playing

Post by Ernst »

Hello,

I tried the "Feature demo" and I don't know if it's a bug or no, but in the dialogue window, except for the conversation tab, nothing is updating.

For example, When a quest status is change from "unassigned" to "active" due to a conversation, the state stay visually unchanged in the Dialogue/Quest-Items window.

In the opposite way, when I manually select a different state for the quest in the Dialogue/Quest-Items window, it's not taken in consideration by the game.

Why it's not working?

Hi,

That's by design, to prevent you from accidentally making permanent changes to your database during play. To view and change the runtime state during play, please use the Watches tab.

Thank you. Although I thought I read the whole documentation, I missed that one.

No worries! If you read the whole documentation, you'd have a long white beard by the end. Version 2.0 will streamline the documentation to make it shorter, simpler, and more direct.
