External Variable by Uberstalker on 07-31-2006 at 11:16 PM
I am working on script that I need to be able to declare multiple variables and change their values from the chat box...Is this even possible? If so can someone help me?

Dont declare them in a function declare them at the top of the file.
code:
var myVariable;
function OnEvent_Initialize(bMessengerStart){
}

I need to be able to assign a / command such as /new <name> and create a new varible that I can change the value of with something like /change <name> <value>...if that makes any sense

Go look through some other scripts, and what people use to see if the message is /something. Also, look for some scritps that submit paramaters.

Edit: The post below is what you want, f'sure
Since a map can be implemented as an associative array.

you can't create new variables on the fly with jscript afaik but you could do this with an associative array.
code:note that you can assign a value to an item in the array without declaring that item.
var my_vars= new Array()
function setValue(name,data){
my_vars[name]=data;
}
