Solved Get value of lua in javascript

Hi, just wondering if anyone has a good solution of getting values from lua in javascript.


To be specific, getting color palettes from lua and using that as a variable in Javascript.

Code:

TorqueScript.eval([[getVehicleColorPalette(0);]])

 

In order to get the value from a Lua function it needs to return some value:

Code:

local function getVehicleColorPalette()
  return someVehicleColorPalette
end

Then in JS you will need to call the Lua function and it will return the value:

Code:

bngApi.engineLua('my_extension.getVehicleColorPalette()', function(data) {
  // assign value returned from Lua
  var returnedValue = data;
});

 

I feel kind of stupid right now haha, thanks for the help
