Globals?

[Marine]

Hey,

I was wondering if it is possible to add a variable to gpGlobals, Or how to declare a global variable so it is fully accessible server side.


Cheers

Add to dlls/cbase.h (or in a globals.h that you #include in dlls/cbase.h):

extern int g_iMyGlobal;

That's a declaration. Code that references g_iMyGlobal will compile, but at link time it will fail if you don't define g_iMyGlobal, which you can do in any .cpp that's compiled in the server project (the linker will find it and sort things out for you):

int m_iMyGlobal;

This method protects you from defining the variable multiple times, and provides the global visibility you want.

Awesome, cheers Paul :)
