  • Basically what I ask on the subject. Is it even possible? I had try many conmbinations but nothing works.

    Also, is it posible to change the on click a button from the example API to a OnTouchedObject from a Touch?

    I´m kinda new on JS so I feel totaly lost on this.

    Thanks in adavance.

  • This is a post about YouTube and C3: https://www.patreon.com/posts/46901116

    Source code: https://github.com/el3um4s/construct-demo

    Demo: https://c3demo.stranianelli.com/javascript/007-youtube/demo

  • export async function createVideo(iframeId) {

    Globals.ytPlayer[iframeId]["player"] = await YouTube.CreatePlayer(iframeId, {

    "onStateChange": e => { Globals.ytPlayer[iframeId]["state"] = e.data; },

    "onReady": e => {}

    });

    return true;

    };

    How do I use the state to change a global variable at an event sheet?

    I want something like this, but I cant find the way to mix both examples:

    const stateTextInst = runtime.objects.StateText.getFirstInstance();

    const ytPlayer = await YouTube.CreatePlayer("youtubeIframe", {

    "onStateChange": e =>

    {

    // When the player state changes, show it in the StateText object.

    stateTextInst.text = "" + e.data;

    }

    });

    Thanks for the links.

  • You can use 

    	runtime.globalVars["Variable name"] = newValue

    or 

    	runtime.globalVars.myVariable = newValue;

    see

    globalVars

    An object with a property for each global variable on an event sheet in the project. For example if the project has a global variable on an event sheet named Score, then runtime.globalVars.Score provides access to the global variable from script.

    I'm not on pc now but I think something like this could go: 

    	const ytPlayer = await YouTube.CreatePlayer("youtubeIframe", {
		"onStateChange": e => {
		runtime.globalVars.myVariable = "" + e.data;
		}
	});

    To simplify the use of "runtime" I prefer to insert a code of this type in 'main.js': 

    	runOnStartup(async runtime => {	globalThis.g_runtime = runtime; });

    I use g_runtime instead of runtime 

    	const ytPlayer = await YouTube.CreatePlayer("youtubeIframe", {
		"onStateChange": e => {
		g_runtime.globalVars.myVariable = "" + e.data;
		}
	});

    If you want "ytPlayer" to be global you have to use the one imported from Globals.js 

    	Globals.ytPlayer = await YouTube.CreatePlayer("youtubeIframe", {
		"onStateChange": e => {
		g_runtime.globalVars.myVariable = "" + e.data;
		}
	});

    However, remember that the variables in the event sheet can only be strings, numbers or booleans

    I can't test this code right now
