Script forgetting values

[-TS-]

I am calling a func to check info, then after info is found, the func is ended an goes back main part of script thats needs the info values, but on returning from a func, my script forgets the info values. Am I missing some OPT command to permently have the script remember the value? or am I stuck with values that ar from func, cant be carried to other funcs/parts of script? Having to remotely store a few hundred groups of values will be a grand inconvenience to me.

Func nk()
 loc();this function is called alot an consists of a lengthy subscript

If $loc[0] = x then; a value retreaved from loc(), which gives me an error "varible used without being declared", even tho I have added tooltip on loc() to confirm the value is properly used

Care to show some more of your code? 'Cause it's hard guessing what you're doing already otherwise.

The x is typo or it's just for example?

Anyway, you can't reference variable the is declared withing a function because it gets destroyed upon function exit as the stack frame gets dismantled.

Keep them in global scope or pass them ByRef to the function or any other valid method. maybe you can tr EVal or Assign for this purpose.

Yup, you simply need to declare $loc in Global scope, where you do it is your own choice, I like to keep my globals at the beginning of my scripts though.

Global $loc

[Authenticity]

It's clear as black on white lol.

Function nk doesn't know what Location function does. All it knows that it might return value or not

Either pass $loc by reference i.e. Func Location(ByRef $myloc) and make a variable $loc inside nk and pass $loc to the Location function.

Global $loc

I was never quite sure what global did, even tho I used to for some appications like pause script

Global, sticks a value to carry/work anywhere thru out the whole script, yes?

[SuneC]

Or...

You could simply return a value from Location(), be it the $loc variable, so instead of setting that variable within the Location function you just Return it and in nk() you will need to have a variable receiving the return from Location().

$loc = Location()

...

Return 10059975;For example

EDIT: To answer your last question, yes, it makes it permanent for use throughout the entire lifespan of the script and for use everywhere in it.
