Summary

Flow Core 4.7 adds optional Blackboard Persistence Groups so projects can reset one category of cached progress without clearing unrelated Blackboard snapshots.

Highlights

  • Added optional string-based Persistence Groups for Blackboard and Global Blackboard data. An empty group represents Global or Ungrouped data.
  • Stored Persistence Groups with Blackboard snapshots while keeping existing save files readable.
  • Added Set Blackboard Persistence Group and Blackboard Persistence Group Equals for runtime Flow workflows.
  • Added Clear Blackboard Cache By Group to remove matching cached level, dungeon, mission, or world progress without removing snapshots from other groups.
  • Added the explicit Clear All Blackboard Cache instruction. An empty Group matches only Global or Ungrouped data and never means Clear All.
  • Added a shared whitelist authoring workflow for group names. The whitelist helps Editor authoring but does not restrict runtime values.
  • Added Removed Count outputs to cache-clearing instructions so a graph can read the number of Blackboard snapshots actually deleted.

Compatibility and Upgrade Notes

Existing save files remain readable. Legacy snapshots without group metadata are treated as Global or Ungrouped data.
