This asset is both a plugin for the Unity Editor and a framework.

The plugin will add the Machinations.io Control Panel into the Tools menu in Unity. This will serve as the link between your game and Machinations. Enter your (freely available) API Key from your Machinations Account to connect to diagrams of your choosing.

The Control Panel is also where, in the future, we will concentrate juicy functionality such as automagically generating working code based on your diagrams.

The framework part consists of source code files that make up a value mapping & synchronization engine. It is the gateway to the Machinations API and simplifies the process of interacting with your diagrams. The framework is Open Source. Check the UP Unity 3D project on GitHub.

For now, the plugin can only work with one diagram at a time, per project. You can switch between diagrams at any time. This limitation will be removed based on community demand.
