for my script

[Nava]

ok im making a script and i want it to have a variable that i can change by clicking on an event in the game does anyone know how to do this??

What exactly are you trying to do? If you want to use a variable in a script you can use $game_variables[id]

 

[BlueScope]

To be exact, setup your event with a Script processing event command (should be close to the bottom of the last page) and insert the following:

$game_variables[id] += 1 # to add 1 to the variable
$game_variables[id] = 1 # to set the variable to 1
$game_variables[id] = $game_variables[id] # to set the variable equal to another variable

You need to change the id for every variable, though.

 

[Nava]

how do kno what the id of the variable is i didnt learn that

 

[Daniel]

There is a number to the left of the variable's name in the control variables event command. That is the id.

 

[Nava]

what is the control variables event command?

 

[Daniel]

In an event, it is in page 1, column 2, second command from the top.

 

[Nava]

yea but my variable is in the script not in the game do i have to put it in the game because my variable is something like $variable i think i called it

 

[Daniel]

I don't really know what you are trying to do, but you can change it by using:

$variable = number
$variable += number
$variable -= number
$variable *= number
$variable /= number
$variable %= number

But you really shouldn't make it a global variable unless it has to be. You could just make a new instance variable in Game_Temp instead, or Game_System if you want it to be saved in save files.

yea i need it so that when i talk to this person in an event the number of the variable is increased by one and it is permanent. likei think i stated b4. so if i do all of that when i talk to the guy every time he will increase the variable by onme and it will stay that way or wil it only in crease it to 1 each time?

 

[Daniel]

Okay, for this it would be better to use a $game_variable. In the event, choose control variables(page 1, second column, second command, choose the variable you want to go up, then choose + for the operation. For the Operand, choose Constant and enter 1. Each time you talk to this event, the variable will go up by one.

 

[Nava]

yea but the variable isnt in the game its in the script is there a way to change the value of the variable thats in the script with an event or do i have to make a def that will do all of that for me and then call it in the event?

*Bump*

can some one please help. if i mademy variable in the script what syntax do i have to use to call and permanently add one to the variable each time the event is clicked because my variable wasnt created in the game so i need a code to put in the script and call to increase it for me does ne one kno how to do that???

Just use call script in an event. Change the variable that's in the script to a global variable so the interpreter class can access it.

 

[Nava]

what syntax do i use to do that?? i want it to be that you have to hit the event so many times for it to work. so lets say i wanted it to be 15 for the variable but it starts at 0. now the program is going to to an equation its going to multiply that variable by 3. so at first it equals 0 which reults with a message saying that the number you have is incorrect. now to have it be right you have to hit the action key on the event, 5 times. how do i make it so that when i hit the event 5 times then walk over to clerk which is the evnt which calls the script, does the multiplication, and shows the output. how do i make the variable stay at 5? i kant figure it out. i just dont know the right syntax for it. if you dont understand this then i will try and explain again. but if you or anyone else know this i would be more than greatful because i really need this!!!! its the part that im stuck at on my script if i get this i willbe able to continue, so please i need some hel and thanx for your time!

 

[verballydecapitating]

The syntax has already been explained.

 

[Nava]

no they explained a syntax for the variable if it was in the game but i will try and use that but im not sure if it will work for what i am trying to do. thanx for your time

 

[Chaosg1]

Look if you are using $variable just do this:

Event:
call script: $variable += 1

Event: Cleric

call script: $variable * 3
if $variable == 15
#do whatever you want
end

 

[Nava]

thanx ive been waiting for sumone to explain it for a while now thanx soooo much!
