Client to Engine variable

#1 Is it not possible?

#2 What you are asking is too vague to really answer. What variable do you want to set? You write C++ code that interacts with scripts. There is a resource that shows how to create C++ functions and call them via script.

#3 Didn't seem vague to me, sorry... I'm asking how I could set a variable in the scripts that the c++ can access. Not any specific variable, just one that I can create to put a string or a variable or anything in it which the c++ engine itself can access, and I supplied a sample class which I might want to read the variable from.

Heres a simple example:

In the scripts;
$isActive = true;
In the engine;
if(isActive){...}

Your second question; Yes, it's possible and it's not difficult.

#5 Well after wondering around the engine for a few hours, I found it =)

Con::getBoolVariable("$myVariable")

#6 That is one way to do it.

The other way is to use Con::addVariable().

Congrats on finding a solution on your own, btw. :)

#7 Thanks :)
