Confirming Remote Config does not work in Unity Editor

[Alex Ferrier]

It seems that Firebase remote config with the Unity SDK only works on device, not in editor (calls to fetch values in the Unity Editor do nothing, whereas a device build works correctly.)

Can anyone confirm this is as designed currently? If so, that's useless for iteration as device build times are too long to cost-effectively test code using these parameters.

Correct see https://firebase.google.com/docs/unity/setup#stub_implementations_for_the_editor

You can still use remote config for iteration since you can deploy to the device, modify parameters in the Firebase console and have a button to fetch the new values on the device.  Alternatively, you could build a parameter tweaking system using the Real-Time Database where when values are changed the editor you write them to the RT DB which are then reflected on the device.

Cheers,
