    Is there a way to rename ScriptableObject class name but link serialized data? There is no [FomerlySerializedAsAttribute] for class names.

    Hi @Lynxed

    I don't actually have you a proper answer... but so far I've done it just by first renaming the SO class in code editor, then renamed the SO class file itself in unity Project view.

    At least simple ScriptableObjects with fields have been pointing correctly to renamed class (and no serialized data lost).
