We would love to hear your feedback and to answer any question you might have!

 

Hi

This is a perfect and easy to use asset!

I have one issue with it at the moment. In this example, State 1 is unable to Trigger testTrigger. It seems like when in OnEnterState, you're still in the previous state and have not fully switched.

Could you please take a look at this?

Thank you.

 

Hi there,
thanks for your feedback! You are totally right, due to the internal execution order of the StateMachine, the OnEnterState event is triggered first.
I've issued an update, changing that behaviour and allowing to trigger transitions right from OnEnterState. It is currently in submission and will probably be available the following days

 

Great, thanks a lot for the quick fix!

 

Hi again - is there a way to make your state machine work in prefabs?

 

Hi, you probably refer to the following message, which is shown on prefab instances.
Actually you can still edit the graph, but you need to go into prefab mode and make the changes directly on the prefab itself. This is in order to prevent graph conflicts between prefab instances and the prefab.
I will adjust the warning in the next update to make that more clear!

 

Aha, I'm sorry then it works perfectly fine. I was opening the State Machine Graph from the Prefab without adding it to the Scene and then the Graph wouldn't show up at all. But double clicking the Prefab is what I should have done, sorry for the confusion. Very happy this works!

(Finally left you a review btw.)
