(Obi 5.0) How to preview Obi simulation while in edit mode. - asimofu_ok - 23-11-2019

Hi.
I immediately updated to Obi 5.0 using Unity 2019.
The blueprint system seems to be good.

However, I could't found how to simulate in edit mode like particle editor in 4.X.
The simulation function was removed from 5.0?

Hi,

Yes it was removed from 5.0, as previewing it with the current architecture would require the blueprint data to be serialized in each actor, which is something we wanted to avoid at all costs. We had to choose, so in-editor simulation had to go. Triste

I see.
I hope to add some alternative function.

In the near future I want to find an alternative solution. Will keep you updated in the Announcements subforum.
