String Variable

All variables require a Declare

Each Variable type has a Declare, a Set, and a Get node. Variables must be declared to be recognized by their get and set nodes, which must use the same custom identifier and scope. See infos for all three below.

Declare String Variable

Description

Declare an String variable with a custom Identifier. Variable declarations do not require an event node to trigger. They are automatically performed when the node graph script is run.

Node Type

Nodes fall into two basic categories: Data and Execution. This node Executes a function when the game loads.

Inputs

Input	Type	Required	Description
Identifier	String	Yes	The custom string id for this variable.
Initial Value	String	No	What the variable holds when the game starts.
Scope	Scope	Yes	Local scope can only be accessed within the same script brain. Global and Object can be accessed by any script brain. Object scoped variables use the Object pin, to associate the variable with an object in the game.

Outputs

Output	Type	Description
(none)

Get String Variable

Description

Get the String variable stored with the matching Identifier in the matching Scope. The Object pin is only used when accessing the Object scope.

Node Type

Nodes fall into two basic categories: Data and Execution. This node supplies Data for an Execution node.

Inputs

Input	Type	Required	Description
Identifier	String	Yes	The custom string id for this variable.
Scope	Scope	Yes	Must match scope of declared variable with the same identifier.
Object	Object	No	Used to associate variable with an object when Object scope is used.

Outputs

Output	Type	Description
Value	String	Current value of this variable.

Set String Variable

Description

Set the String variable stored with the matching Identifier in the matching Scope. The Object pin is only used when accessing the Object scope.

Node Type

Nodes fall into two basic categories: Data and Execution. This node Executes a function directly in the node string.

Inputs

Input	Type	Required	Description
Identifier	String	Yes	The custom string id for this variable.
Value	String	Yes	The new value for this variable.
Scope	Scope	Yes	Must match scope of declared variable with the same identifier.
Object	Object	No	Used to associate variable with an object when Object scope is used.

Outputs

Output	Type	Description
(none)
