Value Copy component as seen in the Scene Inspector

The ValueCopy component is used to copy one value to another place, driving the target with an write back option.

Fields

Fields

Name	Type	Description
persistent	Bool	Determines whether or not this item will be saved to the server.
UpdateOrder	Int	Controls the order in which this component is updated.
Enabled	Bool	Controls whether or not this component is enabled. Some components stop their functionality when this field is disabled, but some don't.
Source	direct RelayRef`1<IField`1<T>>	The source to copy the value from.
Target	field drive of T	The target to copy the value to.
WriteBack	Bool	Allow Target to write back to Source. See write backs.

Usage

Drives the target's value with the source's value. When using WriteBack, changes made to the Target are local while editing it. When the user is done setting it, it writes via a network sync to change the Source value. If the Source and Target are the same, the value will be completely local, and no network sync happens when changing the value. When using the ValueCopy to make fields local like this, joining users will have the host's value by default.

Examples

A ValueField<bool>'s Value is being self driven with a WriteBack - making the Value local, and still changeable. Changes to this value will be local.

A ValueField<int>'s Value is being driven to be 7 from another ValueField<int>'s Value. The one in pink is the one being driven.

The Target field is being edited to 4, to write back to the Source field.
