Tag the Player who enters an Area.

[TheOriginalCj]

In an AreaTrigger, is the Caller the IObject/IPlayer who enters/leaves the AreaTrigger? If so, how would I add a tag to them if I wanted to trigger a certain event to happen to that player at a later time?

You can't "tag" objects using a custom Tag property. Instead save the unique ID of the object to a hashset, list, array or variable (whatever your preferred method is) and check if you have stored the unique ID in those variable(s).

Alright, but I will be calling the variable I'll be "tagging" in a seperate function, does the API support a type of global variable in its current state?

Sure.
Just declare the variables outside your functions. Use static if you need to cross-access them from inside other classes.

Code: Select all

bool TestA = false;
static bool TestB = false;

public void OnStartup()
{
	TestA = true;
	TestB = true;
}

public class Foo 
{
	public void Bar() 
	{
		TestB = true;
	}
}

Excellent. It's a bit different from source C where your PC doesn't like you if you do that. Thanks Gurt!
