How do i use variables in different triggers?

[DKC-Arthas]

How do i go about using the same variables i set in one trigger, in another? I'm having some major issues with this, if i try to set a global variable i cant use the "last created blank" when im creating things. I'm used to WE where you set the variable one and it sticks, as long as the other triggers are performed after you set it.

If you click in the library (where the triggers and folders are) and then click new variable, you will make a global one (which is, I assume, what you are after).

Lolwat?

Global variables??

They are useful???


*GASP*


As was said, just go to the left side where the functions and folders are, and instead of clicking make new function, or trigger, or folder, etc... click make new variable. Now everything can use it!

Global variables are extreemly useful. If you want data to be available for the whole program that might be variable and stuff there is no reason not to use. They however generally are slower as they might not remain in cache and so may require a memory read.

Well what im trying to figure out is like using a dialog variable in other triggers, I cant make a global cause i need to use "last created dialog". Which can not be recognized outside of the trigger, how do i go about using it in another trigger like, "dialog clicked - action etc". If i set a variable in one trigger i cant use it in another.

Make a global button.(or whatever)
Say it is called "Button 1"

In the trigger, make it, and the next line set "last created" to the global.

Ding.

Global variables act like the WC3 variables, but way easyer to manage !

Step 1. Create global variable.
Step 2. Change variable to 'dialog' type.
Step 3. Make a Set Variable action.
Step 4. Set your variable to Last Created Dialog.
Step 5. ???
Step 6. Profit!
