Can't view custom classes in editor, thanks unity.

While working with custom classes in unity i realized their data often cannot be read by the inspector, so i looked for a workaround and found this:

however it does not work. Code below

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Collections;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using UnityEngine;
4. using System;
5.  
6. [CreateAssetMenu]
7. [Serializable]
8. public class Unit : ScriptableObject
9. {
10.     public string UnitName;
11.  
12.     #region stats
13.    [SerializeField] int base_hp;
14.    [SerializeField] int base_mp;
15.    [SerializeField] int base_atk;
16.    [SerializeField] int base_def;
17.    [SerializeField] int base_speed;
18.  
19.     public int current_hp;
20.     public int current_mp;
21.     public int current_atk;
22.     public int current_def;
23.     public int current_speed;
24.     #endregion
25.  
26.     private void Awake()
27.     {
28.         current_hp = base_hp;
29.         current_mp = base_mp;
30.         current_atk = base_atk;
31.         current_def = base_def;
32.         current_speed = base_speed;
33.     }
34. }

The inline field editing doesn't work for objects which extend from UnityEngine.Object. you have to go to the source (the actual scriptableobject) to edit it, or use a custom editor.

Alternatively, make your class not extend from Scriptableobject.

 

*sigh*, fine, i'll make a custom editor. Where do i start.
