Detailed Description

This script is used to store a record of all ConstantID components in the Hierarchy, as well as provide functions to retrieve them based on ID number.

Member Function Documentation

GetComponent< T >() [1/2]

T AC.ConstantIDManager.GetComponent< T >	(	int	constantIDValue,
		bool	prioritisePersistentOrMainScene = true )

Gets a component in the Hierarchy that also has a ConstantID component on the same GameObject.

Parameters

constantIDValue	The Constant ID number generated by the ConstantID component
prioritisePersistentOrMainScene	If True, then components in the main scene, or those that survive scene-changes, will be prioritised in the search

Returns

The component with a matching Constant ID number

Parameters

constantIDValue	The Constant ID number generated by the ConstantID component
scene	The scene to search within for the component
sceneOnlyPrioritises	If True, then the supplied scene is searched first, but all other scenes are then searched if no result is yet found

Returns
