How does visual scripting work with coroutines & async await?

I'm a programmer and use async await quite extensively. I haven't dug into visual scripting yet, but was wondering if it is compatible using async await.

 

Current version of Bolt does not support async await (a limitation of a reflection based runtime I believe?). But Unity are in a process of replacing it, too soon to tell if their new runtime will support it.

 

Sorry for reviving this old thread, I couldn't find any information anywhere else -- is there any chance of visual scripting supporting async/await in the future?

I know that coroutines are available now and with some custom units you can even "return" data that they produce, but having a more well though-out solution would be preferable.

 

I wouldn't bet on that. There are no plans for this currently by the information available. And according to this article, default C# async/await doesn't make much sense in Unity, anyway.
