Title: dataMaker xml, overwriting values.
Post by: SonOfZion on November 12, 2013, 08:18:03 AM

Hello Guys and gals

I have been using playmaker for a few months now and its the best thing that ever graced the asset market.

I have recently needed to start to write data into XML. I have hand write all the XML files that I need and I can call information from them on demand with no issue.

My problem is that I have no idea how to overwrite the data in the XML

For example I will call a persons <name>bob</name>, I would like to be able to change this ingame to somthing else for example <name>frank</name>.

Can anyone point me in the direction I need to find out how to overwrite the name. I checked saveinproxy but I really cant make head nor tales of it.

Thanks all

Hi,

 It's unfortunatly not yet possible. I WANT to add this possibility as soon as possible.

 I have added this to the trello board.

Hello!
Is overwriting values in XML possible now? On trello it seems to be done ("write xml" done since 2014), but I can't find the action to do this.

Edit: To be more precise, I'd like to overwrite the innertext of a xml node at runtime.

Hi,

 yes you can, it's to be done with XmlSetNodeProperties action.
