I know this was also not supported in the old FSM addon, but would be awesome if it could be added. (if possible)

FSMdebug.zip
steps to reproduce:

1. drag zip into c3
2. preview
3. open the debugger and select the instance in it

observed:
keeps logging this error and creates infinite behavior instances

When I am using a FSM I often have the same logic that should run when the FSM is one of many states.
This can currently be solve like this:

with an or block, the downside of this is that the conditions can get very long and more importantly it's fairly heavy as the event system loops over the picked instances once per condition.
To fix that I sometimes use a conditional operator like this:

this solves the performance overhead, but becomes hard to read because of the repeated "player.FSM.CurrentState ="

So my suggested solution would be an alternative condition where we can put in a list of states, it could look something like this:

so it allows for a variable number of arguments separated by commas, if possible.

I guess one might argue you are not supposed to use a state machine like this, maybe? But to me this seems like a sensible thing to do.
