Can anyone tell me if there is a way for me to use a variable within a lump of code, so that code can be looped to send messages to multiple objects?
For example, if I have 10 buttons and want each to send a variation of the same command 'sendCommandX', with X being the number of the button.
Right now I have 10 separate messages, and each button calls its own, like
on mouseUp
sendCommand1
end
on mouseUp
sendCommand2
end
Each of these 10 sendCommand# messages do the same thing, just with a different number in them.
It would be great if I could use a variable within the call, so I could have one reusable message. Like:
on mouseUp
sendCommandX (X being the number of the button clicked)
end
and then the sendCommandX could use the same variable within, like
on sendCommandX
echo "you clicked button X:
end
send the number as a parameter:
I guess your button scripts are cast member scripts?
This code would be better as a behavior, because then you'd only need one script. But it will work ok like this.
