AngusHeaf 0 Posted December 21, 2002 I'm interested in passing some variables to a script being called by an item that has been added to the action menu. Essentially I just want to play the following in the scripting... </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> [variable] exec "script.sqs" <span id='postcolor'> However, the following code that I thought would work hasn't and I'm wondering if perhaps it is not possible to do... </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> player addaction ["action label",{[variable] exec "script.sqs"}]; <span id='postcolor'> Strangely enough, it passes through the editor without throwing any errors, which originally made me believe it would work. However, when I clicked the action it told me it couldn't find the script named inside the curly braces. Like it thought the scriptname was actually that whole exec string. Goofy. Any idea if this is possible and I'm just using the wrong syntax? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bart.Jan 0 Posted December 21, 2002 I think it's not possible by your way. Command reference shows only : player addAction ["Hello", "hello.sqs"] And after executing addAction script there are always 3 parameters : _this select 0 : name of unit with action _this select 1 : name of unit that activated action _this select 2 : index of action If you want use some variable with script you must use public variable and use it in script.
