Communication between Export Script Environment and Mission Script Environment

Greetings ,

well ... my question is exatctly what the Title says.

Is there a way in which i can relay information between these two Environments?!

As far as i see it, those two portions of DCS-Lua is completly isolated.

(And thats what i fear ... )

Thanks for any hint ...

Regards,

Wolf

Global Flags do. That's it as far as I know, but it works. The rest is isolated for good reason.

Thanks for the quick answer Pikey!

Can you elaborate this a bit?!

Setting _G{lobal} variables on one side doesnt show up on the other side so ...

What do you mean by Global Flags?

Thanks in advance.

Okey ... i just found that Thread where you sayed the same thing ... "global flags" ...

aaaaand ... learned about this "third lua environment" explained in "DCS_ControlAPI.txt" ...

another one i might hook up into my dll ... aaaaand ...

with "net.dostring_in" i think i've got now everything i was in need. ^^ :joystick:

Thank You!!!

(Nevertheless ... pointing out what was meant with 'global flags' might be interesting for others in need of help. :-) )

[And sorry for my english ... i know ... it has become very very very rusty ... :-( ]
