Mention graph instance when types are missing on deserialization

[zsoik]

I’m cleaning up code to decide which parts are not used anymore, and naturally, node canvas complains that those types went missing. I just have a hell of a time figuring out exactly in which one of our 1000s of graphs (or blackboards?) the offending types have been used:

1 2 3 4

<b>(Type Request)</b> Type with name 'XXX.YYY.ZZZ.InitializeQuest' could not be resolved. UnityEngine.Logger:Log(LogType, Object) ParadoxNotion.<LateLog>c__AnonStorey0:<>m__0() (at Assets/External/Plugins/ParadoxNotion/NodeCanvas/Framework/_Commons/Runtime/Other/ReflectionTools.cs:111) UnityEditor.EditorApplication:Internal_CallDelayFunctions()

Clicking the error message doesn’t point me to the context object (asset or scene object). If that would be possible, patching these errors up after refactorings / cleanups would be a lot easier!

Hey,

I think I will be able to make the log point to the relevant graph/blackboard. I will need to pass a reference of where the deserialization started down the whole deserialization process and point to that reference in log, in case a type was unable to be found. I just noted this to be implemented.

Thanks for the suggestion once again!
