When I’m working with a new machine I like to prototype it out first and then group them into nested machines. It would be really awesome if I could select a group of nodes in an FSM and rightClick->CreateNested. Or copy and paste an entire group of nodes.
The reason I haven’t created a ‘create nested FSM from selected’, is that in this process any transitions between the selected nodes (the ones that will go into the nested FSM) and the others that will be left in the root FSM, will be removed, and this could have create some confusion.
So even if that is added, transitions will be lost in the process. There is no real way of keeping them.
Copy pasting is indeed another option for that, though like above, transitions that are not part of the selected nodes, will need to be removed when pasting.
Copying and pasting nodes without transitions would still be a huge time save. Right now I’m stuck with copying a nodes actions -> entering the nest -> creating new action -> pasting action tasks -> clicking yes -> going back to parent and then doing the transitions anyway.
