This could affect you when you are using multiple packages where some contain the same object and/Or expect UnloadPackage to remove all objects.

31608 1.1 release

** needs at least articy:draft 3.1.0.31613 **

** Important ** 
If you use a source control system that works with locking files, like perforce for example, 
you need to make sure that all files in the Generated/ folder are accessible and that the plugin 
can create a folder in the Asset/ root folder *before* installing the plugin.

** Known Issues ** 
It still can happen that after importing the progress bar seems to hang at about 50%-75%. 
This seems to be an issues with Unitys script compiling flags and is still under investigation by us. 
If this happens to you, just reopening your project and reimporting again via the menu bar should
fix that issue. 
Hint: Even if the progressbar is a modal dialog and you can't use unity at this time, the menu bar
is still accessible, click File -> Open Project and select your project again is a quick way to reopen it.

- improvement: The Generated/ folder is split into actual generated content and user assets. 
  Both are placed into the new ArticyContent/ folder and this allows you to place the 
  Assets/ArticyContent/Generated/ folder safely on the ignore list of your source control system.
- improvement: With the new Generated/ folder, the plugin will ask if the user wants to put the 
  Generated folder on the ignore list for him. Only works with collab and git at this time.
- improvement: the plugin will automatically relocate your existing Generated/ folder into the 
  new structure. Please read the Important above!
- fixed: in a completely new project the plugin won't spam the log anymore.
- fixed: issues with the isPlaying flag in editor code when transitioning from editor to play mode
- fixed: loading/unloading packages did not properly recreate the internal database

- fixed(hopefully): ArticyDebugFlowPlayer prefab was still referencing the wrong ArticyFlowPlayer, 
  resulting in an "Missing script" 
- fixed: error message at startup

- fixed: the ~$ excel file (excel temp file) won't trigger a reimport anymore
- fixed: missing support for template string properties


30704

* Our build server created the unitypackage without pinning the meta ids for the plugin dlls. This means that every time you used a new plugin and updated your existing project, the ids where different, and all used components or prefab from the plugin could not be matched and where marked as "missing script". From this version forward the id should be fixed, so this *should* be the last version where this happened after updating. *

- fixed: the infinite loop detection was only working for half the cases and is now improved to handle all cases with a log output showing which pathes are responsible for the loop
- fixed: scripts like "getProp() + "Test" where getProp() returned null, threw an exception. Fixed now, by returning always the expected default value (in the example "")
- fixed: Changing the import file with unity closed, and then opening the unity project triggered the importer plugin, but then failed because of a race condition with trying to access the import menu entry, which wasn't there yet. This is fixed and it should always directly trigger the import process.
- fixed: incorrect build server setup caused unity meta file recreation every time a new build was made. now always the same meta files are used


30690 
* From now on, we use the revision number (30690) instead of build numbers (previously 68) *

** Needs at least articy draft 3.0.0.30692 **

- fixed: renaming of templates, features etc. in articy and reimporting in unity kept the old generated files in unity. This could leave the generated classes in an uncompilable state. This is automatically fixed now by checking a hash generated out of the datalayout against the previously imported one. ** IMPORTANT ** it might be necessary to do a Clear/Import again, to fix your current generated classes due to them not having a hash generated yet.
- modified: the CallScript() method for conditions in template properties, used System.Nullable<bool> (bool?) as a return value, making it necessary to check against null before using the actual value. Now the method simply returns bool as there is no internal need anymore for having a nullable.
- addded: the ArticyDatabase now contains ways to GetObjects(string) using a technical name and be actually able to retrieve all objects with that name. Also GetObjects() has an overload taking the instance id into account.
- added: for quick prototyping and debugging, the Branch contains a new property "DefaultDescription" describing the target element.


68

- fixed: crash with skipped instructions and object properties trying to access objects. 
- added: AssetRefPath is now exposed and can be used to load the assets from articy assets manually.
- fixed: crash when trying to ArticyDatabase.GetObject(string) was not found.
- modified: print() method in scripts will now write objects, similar to how articy prints.
- fixed: setting a flow player StartOn inside a Start() method could potentially collide with the own FlowPlayers Start() method. Fixed by always delaying the actual setting of the start node in the first update call. 
- modified: removed some debug log entries in unity.
- **IMPORTANT** modified: completely changed handling of import file. Now the import file (*.articyu3d) can be rediscovered after renaming and working with 2 different unity projects both using the plugin should not overwrite the last used import file anymore. It might be necessary to trigger a new export in articy to fully use this new system.


61

- fixed: Generated script fragment file, could cause reimport(and recompile) problems when fixing code issues related to it.
- fixed: unecessary creation of Generated 1, Generated 2 etc. folders
- improved: awaiting script recompile, should be much more reliable now and recompile hiccups should be less frequent
- fixed: exception when the database editor window is open and the database is about to be rebuild
