StateBehaviour
To customize StateBehaviour, you need to create a script file for StateBehaviour and describe what you want to do.

- From the right-click menu, and select “Create> Arbor > State Behaviour C# Script”.
- Determined to enter the file name
Function to be called
By assigning the created StateBehaviour to the state in ArborEditor, each function of the script will be called.
- OnStateAwake
It is called when it first enters the state. - OnStateBegin
It is called when transitioning to state. - OnStateUpdate
It is called at the timing of ArborFSM's Update().
Whether it is called every frame or not depends on the Update Settings of ArborFSM. - OnStateLateUpdate
It is called at the timing of ArborFSM's LateUpdate().
Whether it is called every frame or not depends on the Update Settings of ArborFSM. - OnStateFixedUpdate
It is called at the timing of FixedUpdate() of ArborFSM. - OnStateEnd
It is called when leaving the state. - OnGraphPause

Execution Order
- OnStateAwake / OnStateBegin / OnStateUpdate / OnStateLateUpdate / OnStateEnd is called in order from the top attached to the state node in Arbor Editor.
- MonoBehaviour messages are invoked according to the order of execution by Unity.
For details, refer to Execution Order of Event Functions in Unity Manual.

You can edit it in Arbor Editor by declaring a variable with public or SerializeField attribute added to the created script.

Additional explanation
- The file name and class name must be the same.
- If the file is placed under a special folder such as Editor folder, it will not be recognized.
- The AddComponentMenu("") that is automatically given is to prevent it from being displayed in Inspector's Add Component.
- We do not support the behavior of adding directly to GameObjects without going through the graph.
- The C# script needs to be compiled to reflect the changes.
If you have turned off Auto Refresh in Preferences, for example, you will need to manually do “Assets > Refresh” from the menu. - MonoBehaviour's enabled is used internally for execution control, so please use the alternative behaviourEnabled.
