Hi,

Might be a bit a niche question but I was wondering if there is a way in the Studio API to check if Live Update is currently connected or the ability to run code (like a callback) when certain live updates are made? I haven’t been able to find anything on the topic so I expect it’s not possible.

Mainly asking out of curiosity, not sure how useful this could actually be in practice.

Hi,

There are two callbacks for when live update connects and disconnects: [FMOD Engine | Studio API Reference: FMOD\_STUDIO\_SYSTEM\_CALLBACK\_TYPE](https://fmod.com/docs/2.02/api/studio-api-system.html#fmod_studio_system_callback_type:~:text=FMOD_STUDIO_SYSTEM_CALLBACK_LIVEUPDATE_CONNECTED).

> when certain live updates are made?

Unfortunately, this is not supported.

If you have anymore questions, please do not hesitate to ask!
