Adding new menu options to node editor
Posted: Wed Apr 17, 2024 12:40 pm
Hi, I'm trying to add more options to the node Editor to make iterations faster for our game.
I managed to do the change required by modifying the DialogueEditorWindowConversationNodeEditor.cs file and adding a empty method so I can get an error if an update overrides my changes.
My question is: Is there a cleaner way to achieve what I'm trying to do or any recommendation for custom changes?
(I discarded the idea of adding the field in a template as I don't want for each node to have a field that is not used often)
