2 years ago From what I gather you’re trying to write some data a few times per trial to an output file. One option is to make a dependent variable that’s just a string, and write to that as a list of data ie {value1, value2, value3, value4} at the end of the trial.
If you’d like more structure to your data, but still are only writing a few times per trial, I would recommend writing your own code to write to a CSV file. It’s not super difficult and would probably suit your needs more.
The continuous recorder is more optimized for speed and file size, so it becomes a bit harder to use than simply writing to your own file. I didn’t really build it with calling record events manually. One possibility is to keep “shouldRecord” off, turn it on one frame, then turn it off again. Or you could extend it to your needs. If you think others could benefit maybe a pull request would be good.

Instead of recording every x frames I would like to record data (I believe this is what you call a Snapshot) only when a specific event occurs. To do this, would I then create a custom Snapshot script, which would contain the data types I would like to record, and a custom Recorder script to call a function (i.e. via an event) which has the following information? CustomSnapshot snapshot = recordableComponent.CreateSnapShot(variable1, variable2, ... , variableN); recordingRecord.AddSnapShot(snapshot); Where "variable1, variable2, ... , variableN" could be different kinds of variables (string, int, float, Vector3, etc.).
Would this then save these different variable types? Would it save it in this order?
How do I set the header string that would appear for each of these variables in the data (i.e. in the output csv file)?
Thank you.
