Visual scripting

Visual scripting in Unity empowers creators to develop gameplay mechanics or interaction logic with a visual, graph-based system, instead of writing traditional lines of code.

Scripting für Nicht-Programmierer

Visual scripting in Unity helps team members create scripting logic with visual, drag-and-drop graphs instead of hand-writing code. It also enables more seamless collaboration between programmers, artists, and designers for faster prototyping and iteration.

Scripting für Designer und Grafiker

Es eignet sich hervorragend für Designer und Grafiker, die Ideen prüfen, Änderungen vornehmen oder eine unmittelbarere Kontrolle über ihre Arbeit in Unity behalten möchten. Nicht-Programmierer können zudem auch die Knotengrafiken nutzen, die von technisch versierteren Teammitgliedern erstellt wurden.

Schnelleres Prototyping und Testen für Entwickler

Programmierer können schneller arbeiten

Using a visual scripting system can increase the speed of prototyping and testing for developers, avoiding wasted effort on handwritten code for ideas that might not be viable. Visual scripting is also a great way to make existing scripts more accessible or create tools for use by other members of a development team.

Wesentliche Vorteile

Flussgrafiken

Flussgrafiken sind das wichtigste Tool für die Gestaltung von Interaktionen in Ihren Projekten. Beim Einsatz knotenbasierter Aktionen und Werte können Sie dank dieser Grafiken die Logik in jeder beliebigen Reihenfolge, in jedem Frame oder bei Eintritt eines Ereignisses ausführen.

Statusgrafiken

Statusgrafiken ermöglichen Ihnen, ein in sich geschlossenes Verhalten zu erstellen, das den Objekten die Aktionen vorgibt, die sie in einem bestimmten Status ausführen sollen. Sie eignen sich für Logiken auf höchster Ebene, beispielsweise bei AI-Verhalten, Szenen- oder Ebenenstrukturen oder sonstigen Aspekten einer Szene, die ein Verhalten erfordert, um von einem Status in einen anderen zu wechseln.

Live Editing

Make changes to graphs in Play Mode to see visual scripting updates in real-time. This offers a much faster way to iterate and test ideas without needing to recompile project changes.

Vorausschauendes Debugging und Analyse

Predict and indicate nodes that will crash before you even press play, and analyze your graphs to anticipate missing components or null references. If an error occurs at runtime, visual scripting will pinpoint its source by highlighting it in the graph.

Auf einfache Anwendung ausgelegt

Visual scripting is designed to be accessible for less technical creators through user-friendly naming conventions, commenting and grouping features that keep graphs simple to read, and the Fuzzy Finder, which makes it easy to search for what you need.

Kompatibilität mit Programmierdatenbank

Use a method, field, property, or event from Unity, any third-party plugin, or even custom scripts within your graphs. Visual scripting directly accesses your codebase via reflection and is always up to date.

Häufig gestellte Fragen

Was ist Visual Scripting?

Visual scripting is a graphical way to manipulate objects and behaviors in Unity without hand-writing code. The logic is built by connecting visual nodes together, empowering artists, designers, and programmers to create gameplay and interactive systems in a simple way.

How can I access visual scripting?

From the 2021.1 release and onward, visual scripting is included in the Package Manager, and shipped with the Unity Editor.

For 2019 LTS and 2020 LTS releases, Bolt Visual Scripting can be found on the Unity Asset Store to download for free.

Was ist der Unity Asset Store?

The Unity Asset Store is a marketplace with thousands of free or affordably priced assets that save time and effort for Unity creators. It is a powerful resource for successful Unity developers that offers over 60,000 packs featuring tools and Editor extensions, 3D and 2D art, cinematic quality music and sound effects, and more.

What versions of Unity does Bolt Visual Scripting support?

Bolt Visual Scripting will continue to support projects on Unity 2018, 2019, and 2020 LTS versions.

Wie wird sich Visual Scripting in Unity weiterentwickeln?

From the 2021.1 release and onwards, Unity will provide visual scripting as a core feature, included with the Unity Editor by default.

What about DOTS-based visual scripting?

Unity is in the process of evaluating the future of visual scripting in consideration of Bolt, Bolt 2, and our DOTS-based visual scripting solution. Our goal is to create a single, cohesive solution that does not result in broken features or fractured communities, and that meets user expectations around production-readiness.
