How can I use an exported variable in the _ready function?

javierBarroso

I have this code:

export var count = 1 func _ready():

for i in range(count)

….

In the editor change the value of count to 4 but when it runs it doesn’t change I guess is because the ready function runs before it update the exported variable. How can I solve this?

It should work as expected....

Is this happening with instanced scenes by chance? If you are working with instanced scenes and have changed count in those scenes, it will override whatever you set count to in the instanced scene's scene/class. You would have to hit the little "revert" arrow in the instanced scene to make it reflect the class var.
