Help How to Save / Load Obi Actors in 5.0

[Bill Sansky]

Some more info, if I do this:

Code:

   public object Save()
   {
       ObiActorBlueprint bp = Instantiate(Actor.blueprint);
       Actor.SaveStateToBlueprint(bp);
       return bp;
   }

   public void Load(object saveFile)
   {
       if (saveFile == null)
           return;
       
       var solver = Actor.solver;
       Actor.RemoveFromSolver();

       var blueprint = (ObiRopeBlueprint) saveFile;
     
       Actor.ropeBlueprint = blueprint;
       Actor.LoadBlueprint(solver);
   }

then there is an exception on load:
(The odin inspector part is just the button press in the editor)

Code:

Additionally, saving and loading during runtime causes a crash of the editor, I attached the dump file but it doesn't seem to bring anything

I also got to realize that I need to save the raw data, not the blueprint since I can't serialize a runtime-created blueprint: how can I modify all the arrays of data manually?
