Notes
-
Note that you can only pass an object or an array of objects in to the code's _this variable.
If you try to pass a null object, the object will NOT be passed. While this would be an odd thing to do, there could be a situation where a variable turns into a null object unexpectedly, and you then try to pass it into the code.
To "pass" other data types into the code, you need to use the format command to modify the code string. Example:
_num = random 1; publicExec ["true", format["setOvercast %1", _num]];
You can only pass String, Number, boolean, and side data types in this way.
