# Create and assign a graph to a new GameObject
|
|
|
|
You can use the empty graph creation flow to create a new graph file and assign it to a new GameObject. Visual Scripting automatically creates a new GameObject with the required components for the new graph file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For more information on other ways to create a graph file, see [Create a new graph file](vs-create-graph.md).
|
|
|
|
To create a new graph and assign it to a new GameObject:
|
|
|
|
1. [!include[open-hierarchy-window](./snippets/vs-open-hierarchy-window.md)]
|
|
|
|
1. In the Hierarchy window, select the GameObject where you want to assign the new graph.
|
|
|
|
2. [!include[visual-scripting-window](./snippets/vs-visual-scripting-window.md)]
|
|
|
|
3. Expand **Create new Script Graph**.
|
|
|
|
1. Select **on new game object**.
|
|
|
|
4. Choose a location to save the new graph file.
|
|
|
|
1. Enter a name for the graph.
|
|
|
|
1. Select **Save**.
|
|
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
> The GameObject you create with this method has the same name as the graph file. After you have named and saved the graph file, the GameObject appears in the Hierarchy.
|
|
|
|
The new graph file automatically opens in a new window.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Create a State Graph
|
|
|
|
To create a new State Graph and assign it to a new GameObject:
|
|
|
|
1. [!include[open-hierarchy-window](./snippets/vs-open-hierarchy-window.md)]
|
|
|
|
1. In the Hierarchy window, select the GameObject where you want to assign the new graph.
|
|
|
|
2. [!include[visual-scripting-window](./snippets/vs-visual-scripting-window.md)]
|
|
|
|
3. Expand **Create new State Graph**.
|
|
|
|
1. Select **on new game object**.
|
|
|
|
4. Choose a location to save the new graph file.
|
|
|
|
1. Enter a name for the graph.
|
|
|
|
1. Select **Save**.
|
|
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
> The GameObject you create with this method has the same name as the graph file. After you have named and saved the graph file, the GameObject appears in the Hierarchy.
|
|
|
|
The new graph file automatically opens in a new window.
|
|
|
|
## Next steps
|
|
|
|
After you create your new graph, attach it to a Script Machine or State Machine to use it in your application. For more information, see [Attach a graph file to a Script Machine or State Machine](vs-attach-graph-machine.md).
