• Click the “+” icon of the event to add invoke member data.
• Set type and member.

  • If it is a Unity object, it can be set with FlexibleField.
  • For other types, it is accepted by input from the data flow.
  • No setting items for static members.

Gets the value of the field or property and outputs it to the data flow.

Refactoring

If you want to change the name of the type or member you are calling, you can use the RenamedFrom attribute to associate the new name with the old name to avoid broken references.

using UnityEngine;
using Arbor;

[RenamedFrom("Player")]
public class Character : MonoBehaviour
{
	[RenamedFrom("TakeDamage")]
	public void InflictDamage(int damage)
	{
		// ...
	}
}

The old name must include the namespace.
It is not necessary when defining in the global namespace such as the above example.

Managed code stripping

Because member calls are made using Reflection, managed code stripping settings may cause the called member to be removed as unused code.

Please set the Preserve attribute and link.xml file so that the callee code is not deleted.

For more information, see Managed code stripping in the Unity Manual.
