Variable

Category: Executor Tier: Basic

Purpose

Writes values into Local or Global variables, supports gameplay text-buffer flows with optional mask formatting, supports direct vector/array edits, and can sample native physics data directly into a variable without a GDScript bridge.

Properties

Property	Type	Default	Notes
Scope	option	Global	Global: Check shared variables. Local: Check this node’s variables
Var Name	variable_name		Variable to check (Timer dicts and the reserved Global ‘_system_time’ supported)
Field	option		Optional Dictionary/Transform subfield. Timer dicts: elapsed/remaining/etc. _system_time: formatted/hms/hm/hour/minute/second/etc. Transform2D/3D: position/rotation/scale/origin/basis axes.
Test	option	Equal	Type of comparison to perform
Value	string		Value to compare against
Min	float	0.0	In Range: lower bound (inclusive)
Max	float	0.0	In Range: upper bound (inclusive)

Notes

• Empty target_node means “sample the owner node”

• 1 Godot unit = 1 meter, so the stored magnitude is meters per second

• This executor stores the raw sampled number only; unit conversion and smoothing belong in Math

• Mask formatting is deterministic and separator-driven; it is intentionally not a general-purpose template language

• Local and Global variable panels parse Array values with Godot Variant syntax first, preserving integer values instead of coercing all numbers to floats.
