CastTo Actor Quandary

Mosel3y

I got what you were saying above. Yes, once the variables are exposed in the details panel I can expose them. I just tried that, and it worked. I didn’t have to name it createWord, it could be anything but I had already set variables up for the letters. So I chose the one that I had been looking for all along.

So that was incredibly helpful, i just didn’t use the CastTo at all. I still feel like there is something missing in my understanding of CastTo that I was hoping to get past this time round, but at least this puts me back on track.

One last question, the last post I put out, I was saying one of the things I’ve had trouble doing is making it give me the name of an object that collided with the Collision object, if I could do that I would be able to use multiple letters for a puzzle more easily. Right now I have to accommodate an either or scenario to account for letters, which is makes my script difficult to maintain as well.

otherwise thank you for your insights and for setting me straight about castTo in this instance.
