Title: Accessing array of c# bools
Post by: christougher on June 17, 2016, 10:46:54 AM

I have a c# script with a public array of bools.  I hope to use playmaker to read this list and populate an array of bools of it's own and then be able to set certain bools back in the c# script.  Get property and set property don't give the ability to read them as far as I can see and the playmaker array actions all are for FSM arrays.  How is it possible to grab/set variables within a c# array? Thx.

There are various ways to interchange and manipulate variables. One way is using "Send Message" to manipulate a value by starting a function.

just define a function in your script.

Code: [Select]

public void myfunction () {
// do something
}
then you can use Send Message with "myfunction" in method name.

Also you can receive variables with send message

Code: [Select]

public void myfunction (bool mybool) {
}To send a bool value to a function just choose bool from parameter.

And to return a value from the function you can use

Code: [Select]

FsmVariables.GlobalVariables.GetFsmBool ("mybool").Value = true;remember to define "mybool" from global variables.

There are other ways, this is just one of them. Also remember to include:

Code: [Select]

using HutongGames.PlayMaker;
