Support for globals in CodeFunctionNode

Package: Shader Graph

-

So I need to accsess a larger set of vectors across multiple materials and shaders.

I've used Shader.SetGlobalVectorArray() in the past with code shaders, but I don't see any possiblity to accsess these values with a Vector node or with custom code node. The only way I currently see to work arround this is to pass the globals into a render texture and read the values, pixel by pixel. But this is really painfull, even 8 properties...

I think the best solution would be to allow global variables inside custom nodes, maybe like this:

This would also alow me to reuse my old code.

    To anyone stumbling on this post, you can include globals, but you have to put it in a .hlsl file along with your custom finction and use that file for the node.

    Another option is to just add a property on the left panel, and uncheck "Exposed".
