Effect: Remove variable

EffectNo. 9238

Synopsis

It removes the whole variable: it does not set it to zero. If you later need to change its value, you will have to give it again with Effect: Give variable. Useful for taking away keys, quest marks or states when a game ends.

Step by step

Remove a user's variable

Boxes you need

  1. TriggerTrigger: Say something
  2. EffectEffect: Remove variable
  3. EffectEffect: Give variable
  1. Create the user variable “keys”, with a value and duration while in the room. Save.
  2. Prepare “Says something” (“give”) + “Give variable”: Users, “keys”, triggering user, initial value 7.
  3. In another stack prepare “Says something” (“remove”) + “Remove variable”: Users, “keys” and triggering user. Save both stacks with delay 0.
  4. Say “give” and check that /circuits Variables shows 7 for you. Say “remove”, refresh and look for your entry again.

Result: You no longer have “keys”; it does not leave an entry with value zero.

Notes

  • To modify its value later, you must give it again. Removing a variable differs from setting it to 0.
  • Effect: Remove variable deletes the whole variable; it doesn't set it to 0.
  • Inside a stack the order is fixed: give → change → remove → $(…) is read → messages → signal. It doesn't depend on height.
