Set variable.

[megadok]

Hey Tony!

I would like to know how I can change the value of a variable in my database.

I have tried...

Code: Select all

myDatabase.variables[0].InitialValue = "megadok";

It work.

But i need something like this...

Code: Select all

myDatabase.setVariable("variableName")="anything";

Thank you!

Hi,

At runtime, variable values are stored in Lua. Use the DialogueLua class to get and set variables:

Code: Select all

DialogueLua.SetVariable("X", 42);
Debug.Log("X is " + DialogueLua.GetVariable("X").asInt);

I did:

Code: Select all

PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem.DialogueLua.SetVariable("Alert","anything");

Code: Select all

 Debug.Log("Your word is " + PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem.DialogueLua.GetVariable("Alert").ToString());

Console said me:

Code: Select all

Your word is  PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem.Lua+Result  

What is the problem?

Thanks!

Ok I solved it this way...

Code: Select all

Debug.Log("X is " + PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem.DialogueLua.GetVariable("Alert").luaValue.ToString());

Thank you Tony!

That will work. A shortcut is:

Code: Select all

Debug.Log("X is " + PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem.DialogueLua.GetVariable("Alert").asString);
