Variables
- Main article: Script:Variables.
Arx scripts know three basic data types: int, Template:Real and Template:Text. Variables can be either global (shared between all entities) or entity-specific. There are also special system variables than can only be read. The variable type is defined by the first character of the variable name.
| Char | Byte | Scope | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
# |
0x23 |
global | int
|
& |
0x26 |
global | Template:Real |
$ |
0x24 |
global | Template:Text |
§ |
0xA7 |
entity | int
|
@ |
0x40 |
entity | Template:Real |
£ |
0xA3 |
entity | Template:Text |
^ |
0x5E |
system | (mixed) |
While variables in Arx scripts are typed, there are no type restrictions for where variables are used: the types are converted automatically.
Commands
