How to set global variable to command??

Hello I want to set global variable to command to set on the other layout

I have variable name "GLOBAL_MONSG" set to ""choose(1,2,3,4,5,6,7)"" I just want to random monster to spawn in layout battle

in layout battle I have variable name "RandomMonster" and set to "GLOBAL_MONSG" because I set it to command to random but it doesn't work. How can I set monster to random in previous layout before I go in battle? Please Help me ! Thank you.

When you put "choose(1,2,3,4,5,6,7)" inside quotation marks as you have, it is no longer an expression, but a string.

I don't think you can have an expression inside a variable. Are you trying to have the random number picked when you go into the next layout? Or have the next layout pick the random number?

You can:

1. Use an action to set your GLOBAL_MONSG variable to choose(1,2,3,4,5,6,7), in which case a random number whole number between and including 1 and 7 will be stored in the variable. Then you can set RandomMonster to GLOBAL_MONSG and get the same number.

2. Use a function that returns "choose(1,2,3,4,5,6,7)", and have your action set your RandomMonster variable to your function output.

I tried to set GLOBAL_MONSG variable to choose(1,2,3,4,5,6,7) but it only random for me for one time in battle, I want to random new monster every battle too.

I don't understand the second method

If you want new random every battle, why not just set RandomMonster to choose(...)?

I guess you want to set a list of which monsters you can choose from before going into the battle. In that case I would create an array - Start with a width of 0, and then push to fill it with the possible choices, then in the battle layout set RandomMonster to Array.At(floor(random(Array.Width)).

That's the first thing I could think of, there might be an easier way, maybe someone else could chime in.

Yes I want to set before go to battle layout

I dont set RandomMonster To choose(..) because it have many battle with different random monster

Okay. I understand but i want to set random "Orb" too, I use number to set random orb and it isnt start with 0 and like 0,1,2,3,4,...

I dont know what to do now maybe I will set all in battle layout.

In my example I run the for each

and my enemys are in this case just another frame from the animation (but can be whatever you want)

system for each objEnemy | set animation frame to > choose (0,1,2,3)
