Sneak peek: r36 Local Variables

Would there be a way to make something like layout variables? Variables that are specific to a layout, and every time you reset the layout the variables would be reset with it.

Scoped variables, sounds good. Just one thought: what happens when you change layout? In that case all variables in event sheet of the old layout are forgotten.

Or did you mean "global" to the event sheet if declared at the start?

We just decided local variables are forgotten every tick anyway, and global variables work like they used to, so nothing special happens when you change layout. Variables declared at root scope become global.

Sorry, I'm a little confused. Do you mean variables declared at root scope become global for the event sheet, then they disappear when switching to a layout that doesn't use that event sheet, or do you mean they become the exact same as global variables, with persistent values and are accessible even when going to a layout without the declared variable in the event sheet?

They're the exact same as global variables when at the root scope. Otherwise, they're not global at all!
