How to update an EventTrigger script argument via code?
Hi, first Unity project and first question!
I have a game object in my scene that, when it receives a click event, will update text in several places. The text is all coming from a JSON array of objects. What I have so far is an UpdateText() function that takes an integer as argument, then fetches the corresponding text from json[integer], and updates the scene:
What I'd like to be able to do is, once the text has been set, update the integer argument within the script to be something else, but I can't figure out how to get at that data. I've been trying with this.gameObject.GetComponent<EventTrigger>(), but haven't been able to pull anything useful from it, and would love any advice on getting hold of it!
I found this interesting and also looked around. bottom line, it seems not possible.one can add and remove those persistent listeners but can only edit their content in the inspector. just a different approach idea.ins$$anonymous$$d of using an EventTrigger, create a class, implement the IPointerClickHandler interface and attach it to the gameobject ins$$anonymous$$d. this way you can react to the click but control what is passed to whom, eg control the int and then call UpdateText from there.
