Title: Get Bool from Java Script [SOLVED]
Post by: MarkD on May 01, 2014, 10:37:55 AM

I'm trying to get a bool from an attached java script on my game object.

Any suggestions on how to do that?  I'm not the best scripter (exactly why I'm using Playmaker) so explaining it like I'm a golden retriever would be helpful. :)

Here's the script I'd like to reference.  I'd like my FSM to get when effectActive== true.



private var effectActive = false;

function Update ()
{
   if (effectActive == true)
   {
      
   }
}

function EquipmentEffectToggle (effectIs : boolean)
{
   if (effectIs == true)
   {
      effectActive = true;
      
      Debug.LogWarning;
      
      
   }
   else
   {
      effectActive = false;      
      
   }
}

Personally when i need to transfer messages between scripts and playMaker
I use global variables.

Like this

PlayMaker -> Global var -> Script

and backwards aswell.

If you can translate from C# to Java then my short tut might be helpfull
