Hi everyone,

I'm trying to get a value returned from a function

This is the function:

When I go to call it, the Function object doesn't even appear.

Thank you,

Ok, let's start eliminating the obvious.

Is the function and Char on the same event sheet?

I just did this and it worked as expected.

+ Button: On clicked

-> Button: Set ButtonVariable1 to Functions.DoSomething

-> Text: Set text to Button.ButtonVariable1

* On function 'DoSomething'

-> Functions: Set return value "This is the return value"

Functions only appear as expressions if you have set their return type to something other than 'None'.

Hi thank you for your replys, im sorry but i im starting :D

Fengist The Char and the function is not on the same event.
— Why do i need a parameter? I want to return a value from the function not send one to the function.
Ashley how can i do that?
Thank you

Edit the function. It's the 'Return type' dropdown.
