Multiple Remember components on prefab don't assign ConstantID

zsoi

Just stumbled upon this small issue:

- Create a Prefab (e.g. a NPC)

- In addition to the RememberNPC, add another remember component, e.g. RememberTransform (even though it's technically redundant)

- Uncheck the "Retain in Prefab" flag

- Add the prefab to a new scene

- Neither of both Remember components will have an ID configured

Also, there is no way to reassign a constant ID manually. The only way to get a constant ID is to remove one of the remember components, check/uncheck the "Retain in prefab", and then re-add the second remember component. But this workaround breaks the prefab instance

I can recreate your first issue, but not the second: changing Set to Manual allows me to change the ID number just fine.

Oh, you're right, that'd work, but normally the ID is assigned so that no conflicts occur etc.. How do I create such a non-conflicting ID manually? Entering some random value could potentially conflict with other constant IDs, won't it?

Set it autoamtically it will avoid picking the ones that have already been taken.

As @SkyTree suggests, set it automatically - but on an empty GameObject.  Note the number down, and then you'll know a number that isn't taken by anything.  Then just delete the GameObject and re-use the number.

The first issue will be fixed in v1.50.
