Well, so far I have been able to easily get around the fact that script A cannot communicate with script B, but I have come to a point that I can't avoid asking anymore. I am working on a new version of the Maglev, one that actually floats, but in order to do so without having to type out EVERY SINGLE position of EVERY SINGLE track piece, I would like to set up a global table. Just setting the tracks to "report in" to the table, then using the table to set the hover hight would be a lot easier. Not to mention the fact that I would be less at risk for getting carpal tunnel. So, is there a way currently to set up a global table that I am missing, or is this in the works. At the same time, how about global variables, as well?

That would be cool if it actually floated but im not a scripter so i don't know what to do. But a simple and basic idea is to set the transperancy of the track to zero to make it look like its floating.

If you explain how you are trying to make it work, I might be able to help you figure something out. The way we have handled inter-script communication at the moment has been with value instances. i.e. IntValue, StringValue, and ObjectValue. This is how the weapon scripts communicate with the leaderboard script in many official maps.

Oops I meant to say change the transperancy to 1 not zero.

Aren't global variables supposed to be a programming taboo in the caliber of goto? :P But yeah, I would think you'd want to do it the way Telamon described above.
