LE How Do You Call A Function In Another Object

[LegoManIAm94]

I've been trying for hours and searching all over the net trying t figure out how to call a function from script A to run on a script B on another object. Essentially I want Object A which has Script A attached to it to run the RunMe() function in Object B which has Script B attached to it. In Script B there is a function called RunMe(). Is this even possible or is there another method.

ScriptB.RunMe()

ScriptB.RunMe()

Is ScriptB a ObjectReference property? And are there any more properties needed?

It is a little bit more than what irswat said. ScriptA needs to know about ScriptB first.

 

Here is one example where I called upon variables on a MCM script from a stock script without having to add properties to the stock script.

In the empty state immediately following existing property declarations:

abim_RM_MCM_QuestScript MCMScript

As the first thing that ran in the first possible event that would run on the script:

MCMScript = (Game.GetFormFromFile(0x00000D62,"Random Mining MCM.esp") as Quest) as abim_RM_MCM_QuestScript

Whenever I wanted to access a function or variable throughout the rest of the script:

MCMScript.ExpValue as Int

Hmm. I think this is more than just calling a function from script B from Script A?

[LegoManIAm94]

I think I got it!

ObjectReference Property OBJECTREF Auto

Event OnInIt()
	RegisterForUpdate(2.0)
EndEvent

Event OnUpdate()
	(OBJECTREF as OBJECTSCRIPT).RunCustomFunction()
EndEvent

This will run the RunCustomFunction() in OBJECTSCRIPT that is attached to OBJECTREF.

That will work. That is one of the other ways to obtain information from another script. Reference the object itself then cast it as the script assigned to it.
