[Solved] Do event-response variables carry over to the next trigger?

[johnq1216]

If you "Run another trigger while ignoring conditions", will the next trigger inherit the variables from the first one?

For example,

Trigger 1:
Event - Player 1 types "Hello"
Action - Run Trigger 2 while Ignoring Conditions

Trigger 2:
Action - Display text to all players: ( Name of Triggering Player + " has typed hello" )

--

Will the output be "Player 1 has typed hello." ?

Nope.
In GUI, local variables don't even work when you do "Pick every unit in..."
That's because "Pick every unit in.." creates a new function, and local variables can only be accessed inside the function that they are created in.

How about trying it out?

I think he meant the thread-local event responses. Yes, these are transfered, local variables are not.

I just created this trigger and ran it.

* TRIGGER 1
Event
- Player 1 types "kill"
Action
- Pick every unit in entire map matching unit selected by player 1 and kill the unit
- Run Trigger 2 while Ignoring Conditions

- TRIGGER 2
Action
- Display Text: ( Name of Triggering Player + " has killed something )

---
The output was: "WorldEdit has killed something" displayed as text in the game.

My initial understanding was that the use of this type of variable "Triggering Player" can only work on the Trigger it is at. Then I got an output out of the two triggers I made above. I'm confused.

Yeah I tried it out. To me, WorldEdit is kinda inconsistent at times. I gotta be sure.

Ok now I understand. Thanks guys.
