Numbered objects with an identifier number.

[Guillermo Massaferro]

Hello.
I need to somehow generate a script that lists one by one the same way growing furniture.
For example put the object “table” and the script assigns the number 01; then I put another “table” (equal) and the script assigns the numer 02 …
the script must be layered to recognize few equals “table” is, and assign a numbering increasingly as they are placed.
This is possible?

Hi,
There is no solution in GDL for that: an object does not know anything about previously placed objects.
I think you should use the ID instead, which makes this increasing for you automatically, and you can check the ID from your scripts and draw that from 2d script.

OK,
It is possible from the script of an object, refer to parameters or data of another object? As I make this “calling”?

No, placed objects don’t know anything about each others parameters. You’ll need to write an addon, if you would like to connect placed items.

You can use COMPONENT to write data from all object with some key in out string (by type, for example) and parse this data from another object.
