Visual scripting update process
Unity recommends frequent backups and to store the copy of the data on a separate medium; doing so protects against primary data loss or corruption.
Note: Always backup your data before updating visual scripting.
The update workflow for visual scripting is as follows:
- Backup your project.
- Open the Package Manager and click Update.
Backup your project
The graphs and visual scripting assets backup automatically.
It is a one-click operation to manually back-up your project.
In the menu, choose Edit > Project Settings > Visual Scripting > Create Backup, then click OK.
Open the backups folder via Edit > Project Settings > Visual Scripting > Restore Backup.
Note: It is good practice to make frequent backups if you do not use version control.
Note: Unity recommends using a version control system (VCS) such as Unity Collaborate, Git, or Subversion.
