Bug / Crash  Random null error when editing cloth BP
#1
I can edit the cloth blueprint few times and after 5th or sometimes second it dissapears and gives null errors


Code:
NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object

Hi Mmero,

Had another user report a similar issue on Unity 2020.2. What Unity version are you using?

Any idea how to resolve this issue?

From my perspective i bought the asset that just doesnt work.

Assetstore page doesnt say anything about "this asset doesnt work in versions 2020.1 and above"

Hi there,

It has been reported only very recently, so still figuring it out. Judging from the stack trace, the culprit is a variable that should be initialized but it isn't. That variable is initialized when the editor gets its OnEnable() called, so it should *always* be initialized. Coupled with the fact that this only happens in 2020.2 and up, makes it look like a bug in Unity. I hope to have more details today.

I'm fully aware of this, my apologies. The asset is supposed to work in 2020.2 just fine. Will investigate and provide a patch asap.

So far I've been unable to reproduce this. Tried 2020.2.6f1 and 2020.3.0 without success.

The stack trace points to a NullRefException in this line:

Code:
currentProperty.OnSceneRepaint();

The only thing that can be null here is currentProperty. This grabs the first property in the properties list, initialized in the editor's  OnEnable():

Code:
properties.Add(new ObiBlueprintMass(this));
properties.Add(new ObiBlueprintRadius(this));
properties.Add(new ObiBlueprintLayer(this));

So as long as Unity is calling OnEnable() -as it should- there's literally no way currentProperty can be null.

- You mentioned this happens 5 seconds or so after opening the blueprint editor, is this correct?
- Can you share the mesh you're using to generate the blueprint?

Also, can you try resetting Unity's window layout (Window->Layouts->Reset All Layouts)? 2020.X has a fair share of layout-related editor issues, some of them have affected us in the past. Just to make sure this isn't layout relayed.

I upgraded the unity version and the problem doesn't show up Sonrisa

Now I'm having a problem with cloth properties but this is for another topic

One of those unsolved Unity mysteries  Huh  . I'd actually like to get this to happen to me so that I can investigate and fully understand the issue, but this one is slippery!

Glad you got it working though.  Let me know if I can help in any way. Sonrisa

Got the same (Unity 2019.4.22f1) found a working temporary fix:

Look at the code added by // SDP tag

ObiActorBluePrintEditor.cs

   

Selectable.cs (in Unity source code Unity.app/Contents/Resources/PackageManager/BuiltInPackages/com.unity.ugui/Runtime/UI/Core/Selectable.cs)

   

   


Can be useful if upgrading your Unity is not an option
