Creating Bespoke Variables (not events)
Is there a way to create your own bespoke variables (not events)? I noticed there are 100 built in bespoke variables by default. I also noticed that when I create a bespoke event and export to xml, an additional file is created with the same name as my events file but with 'Vars' at the end. This file is pretty much empty (with the exception of container xml code for Variables. This got me wondering if one can create their own bespoke variables (not events)? If so, how? Can this variable xml file be populated? Is there a UI method of doing this? What is the XML schema for listing variables in the xml?
Thanks for your response.

The Bespoke Variables are there for your use as you see fit. You can rename them by selecting one, typing a new name in the box above the selection window and clicking the rename button. However this is glitching slightly but can be worked around - see this thread:

The renamed variables appear in the xml file.
Best wishes
