ORK.Game.Variables.Set Does this refer to local or global vars?

Socrates

The title is pretty much self-explanatory but what I'm trying to do is change an ORK variable for a player's session and not the whole game. Does this line of code affect the variable globally? Thank you!

(This is how I'm currently checking the game Variable)

ORK.Game.Variables refers to the global variables.

There is no player session - starting a new game will clear/reinitialize the global variables, loading a save game will load the saved global variables.

If you're refering to object variables on the player, you can access them via the player combatant: ORK.Game.ActiveGroup.Leader.Variables

So, does " ORK.Game.ActiveGroup.Leader.Variables.Set " only works on Objects with combatant components? Also does it change variable values solely for the instance of an object?

ORK.Game.ActiveGroup.Leader is a direct reference to the player combatant.

If you have the instance of a combatant (class Combatant), you can access it's variables via the Variables property.

If the variables are only changed on that combatant/object depends on the object variable setup. When used as Local Variables, yes, otherwise it depends on if their object ID is shared with other combatants, in which case it'll be changed on all of them.
