Updating EasyBind

To ensure a smooth update process for EasyBind while keeping your custom configurations intact, follow these steps carefully:

Step 1: Back Up Your UserData

Before updating, it's crucial to back up your data to prevent any loss of custom configurations. Navigate to the RDevStudio/EasyBind/UserData folder within your Unity project's assets. Copy this folder to a safe location outside of your Unity project directory.

Step 2: Importing the New Version

When you're ready to import the latest version of EasyBind, follow the initial steps to open your project and access "Packages: My Assets" in the Package Manager, just like you did during the first installation. Locate EasyBind and proceed to download or update the package.

Step 3: Deselect the UserData Folder

During the import process, when the import dialog box appears showing all files ready to be imported, find and deselect the UserData folder. This prevents overwriting your previously saved configurations.

Step 4: Restore Your UserData

After successfully updating EasyBind, restore your UserData folder to its original location within the RDevStudio/EasyBind directory in your project. This ensures all your custom settings are reapplied to the new version of EasyBind.

Step 5: Rebuild the Store

To guarantee that your project aligns with the newest EasyBind standards and to clear any errors about unrecognized new types, a forced store rebuild is crucial. Begin by selecting the EasyBind (Singleton) prefab in the hierarchy. Then, in the inspector, click on Refresh Build Options followed by the Build Store button. This action updates your code to adhere to the latest standards, facilitating seamless functionality and ensuring full compatibility with the upgraded EasyBind version.
