Script public variable in a script for adding it to a gameobject at runtime

Hey all

I've been struggling with this for some days.....

I made a script for building characters at runtime.....
here's the inspector:


My problem was to add a script to those created chars, so that they behave in a certain way.
And i wanted to setup this script in inspector, and not hardcoded in my ingame_toon_builder script.
Now it works for me like a charm and i post the solution in case it would be of interrest for some ppl...

It appears not possible to have a

Code (CSharp):

1. public MonoBehaviour toon_behaviour_script;

This won't accept any script from drag'n drop....

You need to have:

Code (CSharp):

1. public UnityEngine.Object toon_behaviour_script;

you then create the GameObject and add the script to it as a component:

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2.       new_go.AddComponent(Type.GetType(toon_behaviour_script.name));
3.  

As the name of a script describes its type, this works fine

Happy Unitying !

 

If you need something a bit more solid, I've got a plugin for this on github.
