How to make a global variable in Unity?
im trying to make a global variable so other scripts can do stuff with it. How do i make a variable global?
edit using java
I'm pretty sure this has already been answered but you can always put
static var
infront of something and that makes it accesible from other scripts.
does this still work it doesn't seem to do you have to put it in both scripts i tried that too and it didnt work
you don't need to put the definition both places. in c#, you would write static in front of the variable, then in the other script you can access by typing
origscriptname.variablename
Use `Singleton`s!
They're **much** better than using static.
Grab the singleton script above and simply use it as such:
public class MyClass : MonoBehaviour {
void Awake () {
Debug.Log(Manager.Instance.myGlobalVar);
}
}
Manager.cs
public class Manager : Singleton<Manager> {
public string myGlobalVar = "whatever";
}
Hi Cawas, How do I do this in some if statement in the Update method? I have the following Update and LateUpdate, and I would like to use the latest results of Update in LateUpdate; i.e. be able to use currentPose and target$$anonymous$$odel in the updateAgainLater method. How do I store the currentPose and target$$anonymous$$odel contents immediately, so I can use them in LateUpdate?
void Update()
{
Vector3[] latestPositions;
Quaternion[] latestOrientations;
// Get the pose data in one call.
if (Actors.getLatestPose(actorID, out latestPositions, out latestOrientations))
{
// Update both the pose and the model.
updateActor(currentPose, latestPositions, latestOrientations);
update$$anonymous$$odel(currentPose, target$$anonymous$$odel);
}
}
void LateUpdate()
{
updateAgainLater();
}
Thanks
You can use the "static" modifier. In C#, that would be
public static int myInt = 0;
It took me forever to find this out, so I thought I would mention it here.
If you create a global variable called myGlobal inside a class called GlobalVars, you access that global variable with GlobalVars.myGlobal.
Hi,
This tutorial explains very clearly and simply how to create global variables using Singletons!
