Text to Variables
Hi, I want to make a script that reads a text file and puts each line into a variable, something like this:
Text file:
number1
number2
Script:
var number1 = textline 1
var number2 = textline 2
Something like that, but i dont know how, please help me.
I'm not sure if this is the best way to do it, but we shall see. You could use StreamReader, one of the System.IO classes. Eric5h5 does a demonstration on how to utilise lines from a .txt file in this post.
From his code, all you would need to do is add your variables var number1 : String; and var number2 : String; to the beginning of the script and then, at the end of the Start() function replace
for (line in lines) {
print (line);
with:
number1 = lines[1];
number2 = lines[2];
//any further variables you have
That's basically it. If you have a large amount of lines you want to pass through variables, you would probably need a for loop of some kind to make life simpler. However, I'm not so great with for loops to be honest (barely ever used them), so I probably wouldn't be able to help you on that one. ;)
Hope that helps, Klep
