How to "set" variables in a PackedScene?

0 votes

For a normal scene I can do this and my challenge_number is set :

@onready var scene = preload("res://scenes/test.tscn")
var challenge_modal = scene .instantiate()
challenge_modal.set("challenge_number", 3)
add_child(challenge_modal)

I will be using change_scene_to_packed
A bit lost on how to set variables here to access in the scene change and how to use the change to packed method

Hey, hope I'm understanding your question right, but you should be able to set any variable in your instanced scene using the dot accessor, or whatever it's called. Ex: "challenge_modal.your_variable = your_value".
Or if you made setter functions in the packed scene, then
challenge_modal.set_your_variable(your_value)

Did that help?
