Have you ever faced such problems:
• Recreating references for your components over and over again?
• No control how the references are actually configured?
• No control over the references in the inspector when setting them in code?
• End up frustrated with the slow scene loading when setting the references in code?
Well, here comes the solution.
EXPOSED is a simple but powerful tool which helps you easily and automatically map object references for your components. You can set rules for creating references. Plus these references are completely reusable for other components. Everything is configurable in the Inspector and you can see the results of rules settings and references immediately.
EXPOSED vs. drag&drop
Comparing to ordinary drag&dropping EXPOSED dramatically reduces repeatable d&d or reference selecting.
EXPOSED vs. coding
EXPOSED helps you to visualize the reference settings and to get rid of initialization performance overhead when setting references by code in Awake method.
How to use it
• Add ExposedReferences script on GameObject with your component.
• Create reusable exposed configuration asset file.
• Choose which references will be assigned automatically through EXPOSED and which will be handled manually.
• Define the rules.
Rules’ settings
There’s no need for coding when setting the rules, you can always use basic predefined rules. However, if you need to define extra conditions for obtaining references for scene objects, you can write your own rules and connect them through EXPOSED API. Or you will be able to use the query, which is realtime and the most flexible (query feature coming soon).
Predefined rules
• GameObject – searching for components on the same GameObject
• Children – searching for components or GameObjects in the children GameObjects
• Parents – searching for components or GameObjects in the parents GameObjects
• Tag – searching for components or GameObjects with specified tag in scene
• Object of Type – searching for objects of specified type in scene
Plugin is entirely written in C# and the source code files are included.
I´m planning to keep working on the EXPOSED plugin and keep adding more features. So if you have some ideas what could make your work with references easier, please definitely get in touch. You can ask your questions and share your ideas in the forum thread on Unity web site.
