Game version to variable

[lucasm]

Is it possible to get the game version using a variable? (Or to get the game version on an event and turn it into a variable)
I mean the version you set in project properties, so you could display it on a settings page and even make the game check for updates.

Hi!

In your JSON source version, you can examine then extract the word “Version” : , like below for my game (in my example => “O.7.1” is the version)

I am closing this as solved assuming you are the same lucasm as on discord. The solution was using this Js code:

// Get Version from project data
const version = runtimeScene.getGame().getGameData().properties.version; 
// Store in scene variable version
runtimeScene.getVariables().get("version").setString(version);

Yep, it is solved
I did something different tho
Here’s the solution:

That’s literally the same code with a different scene variable name
