Varibles across Pages

[sameer valva]

Hi,

Im trying to take date from variables in other pages, i tried but it didnt work.

Is there anyway to keep the data of variables between Pages, Now im using Text files to store variables data in.

You have to make the verbs globelly acceable so anything you save on page one lets say in _SaveMe = ""; will be be accepable in page two, but if you have closed the app and then reopened and skipped page 1 then this wouldn't work as page one would of never wrote that _SaveMe and would give you a nil vale error.

So you would have to save it like you are to access it later, but if you are always going to page X first to set something it can be assessed on page Y later, but you have to also make sure you save it as a verb and not just put it in a object, as objects wont be acceable with there data on a new page.

Thank So much , I tried it before and didnt work but now it worked.

So Any variable in any page can be used in other pages ? Like If : MyVar = "1985"; in page 1 , i can get its value in Page 2 in an input like this : Input.SetText("Input1", MyVar) ?

Yes long as you don't over ride that vrb on the second page or part of a global function what we all can do at times.

[Imagine Programming]

In addition to kingzooly's reply on making the variables global, I would suggest to make a global state object in the global section of the project.

i.e.

ProgramState = {
    MyVariable1 = "Hello World!";
    MyVariable2 = 1337;
    MyVariable3 = true;
};

And then anywhere in your program:

Dialog.Message("Testing!", ProgramState.MyVariable1)
