The Add Script Variable example demonstrates the following:

• How to build a plugin module for the VR-Forces 3D Gui
• How to add a new scripted variable type to the script system
• How to reference this variable in a scripted task

The Add Script Variable example shows how to add a new scripted task or set variable to the script system, in this case an integer list of values. It will show to add the gui componenet as well as the component to transfer the data to/from reader/writer variables (which the foundation of getting this information into lua scripts).
To use this example you can either load the add script variable toolkit developer example. This example has an entity with a plan that contains a task that uses the new variable in that task, or, you can create a new scenario with a scenario script that adds the Integer List variable to a scripted task.
