dynamically add a variable to an object that sticks?

[Mr_Stabby]

Im so tired of using color and texture matrix variables to store data, isnt there any way to permanently add a custom variable to an object like u do when u type something=2 in the empty box at the bottom of each objects script menu?

Code: Select all

if (!e.this.somevar) { e.this.{somevar} := something; }

Something like that should work. The := is important. (The syntax could be wrong—I don't really know Thyme, just bits and pieces, and I'm much more used to JavaScript syntax.) It'll work without the if, but throw warnings about variable already defined (if you put this in a repeating onCollide/onLaserHit).
