Ben Zeigler;620790’]Easier access to DataAssets is something I’m working on for the 4.16/4.17 time frame actually. You can’t have a DataTable of DataAssets because DataTables are in memory as a single asset with multiple structs, whereas DataAssets are one “row” per file. When I’m done it will be possible to easily get a list of all DataAssets of a certain type, which you can then use to do various operations. I might be able to make a DataTable-like interface for DataAssets as part of that, it’s still in the planning stages.

Generally better access to Data is something I’m interested in, but nothing concrete is planned for DataTables specifically.

Cool, yes that flexibilty will be very usefull. Also do you plan to add export/import to json for DataAssets, or maybe Engine will use text form to store these two assets by defualt.

What else would be cool, Ben, is to be able to select many same type data assets in editor and edit them in table form. If you are making DataTable/DataAsset rewrite maybe you can consider making this feature.

Thanks.
