passing variable from hooks file to SSE script

[chromium]

Is it possible?

 

I'm looking for a way to pass the loaded mission path as a text variable (got by DCS.getMissionFilename() ) to a script that is running into the mission (loaded by "do script file").

 

thanks

the only way i found so far to transport data between the different Enviroments are either sockets or simply writing and reading a file. and yes its a pita.

(between cockpit and Export its a bit easier because you set and read gauges)

[chromium]

do you have a socket example that might been read into the mission environment whitout having to modify missionscripting.lua?

 

writing and reading a file is my current solution, but i'm looking for a way that won't interfere with the current sanitization thing.

i am not at my PC, but SRS has a socket-connection in thier luas

uhmmm thanks, I'll check. But please, when and if you get to your PC consider sending something here if I don't already answer with a "Hey solution found" ;)

 

I can't look now, I will this evening likely

found a solution, ugly but it's ok.... serialize a table into string in the mission environment, print it as a text message and then in the hooks environment set an "onTriggerMessage" code that parse that text message back into a table.

 

Ugly mostly because it's a workaround.
