Ok, so I feel extremely incompetent here, but I’ve never used properties, and now guess what? I need to use them in a game, and I don’t know how to wire it so when you press a button, the property changes.
search before you post
there are plenty of people who already asked this and even more who made guides about it
sorry if it sounds i’m annoyed, i’m not lol
k, i just put anything with that came up in search
I searched, nothing was useful in the first few results, so I stopped searching. Evidently I was wrong lol
I do NOt need help with blocks srry tho.
Make sure to mark @Zappy_Zaptos post as the solution if this topic has been solved.

The Property Device is basically a permanent variable holder. It stores information and data that other devices in your map can access, change, or use under different conditions. It can also operate in different scopes, it could apply to everyone, a single player, or teams. It’s widely considered one of the most useful devices in Gimkit Creative.
Add a Property to your game by simply clicking the purple icon on the top right corner of your screen labeled with +, select Devices, search up “Property” and place it anywhere you want on your map.
You can think of a Property as a memory unit that keeps track of something in your game. For instance, a timer, a player’s height, or values used for mathematical operations.
Each Property has:
• A name (what you or other devices will refer to it as)
• A value (the data it stores)
• A scope (who the property applies to)
The value can be different data types, such as:
• Number (e.g. 45, -3, 0)
• True/False (e.g. whether a device is active)
• Text (e.g. “Mission Complete”)
The Property can be linked to other devices so they can read, change, or check its value. For example, a Trigger, Button, or Counter can update the Property, while a Checker can use it to decide what actions to run (true or false). This allows different devices to share and react to the same stored data.
Welcome to the forums! I know how you are!
Make sure to read the rules at https://forum.creative.gimkit.com/guidelines and s.orules.
Properties are like variables for your map (if you know real coding). You can make scores for individual players with them that show up on the leaderboard. You can make them different for each player, or the same for everyone. I hope this helps!
