I am trying to set a variable to an object’s variable in a while loop. What is the correct expression to use for say: Object0.VariableString(color) <— where “0” can be anything from 0 to 10.
I’ve tried the following with no success:
“Object”+VariableString(Loop_Int).Variable(color)
“Object”+VariableString(Loop_Int)+.Variable(color) <— yeah, don’t laugh, i am stupid lol.
It is not possible this way.
If you want to set the color variable for each object to be the same, you can add all objects to an object group and then simply reference the group in the object name.
GroupName.VariableString(color) = “0;0;0”
If you would like to set different colors for different objects and you do prefer using a loop then what you could do is add the objects to an object group again, and then use an expression to get their name and store it in a variable and then compare it in a loop.
Condition:
At the beginning of the scene
Action:
DO = GroupName.ObjectName() to text of variable ‘name’ of object ‘GroupName’
And then you can use a loop.
Do = 0 to variable counter
Repeat 3 times:
Condition:
text of variable ‘name’ of object GroupName = “Object” + ToString(Variable(counter))
Action:
GroupName.VariableString(color) = “0;0;0”
Do + 1 to variable counter
So then you pick the instances of the first 3 object to change their color value but not the other 7 objects.
