StartCoroutine() like BroadcastMessage() ?

Hello Young Rouge,

What do you mean by this,

"Also since you can start a coroutine with it's string name you could just send the name of the coroutine to launch with the broadcast."

Do you mean to say that I make something like this?

 string[] stringArray = {"CoroutineName","importantPackage"};
 
 BroadcastMessage("StartCoFunction",stringArray);
 
 void StartCoFunction(string[] incStrings){
      StartCoroutine(incStrings[1],incStrings[2]);
 }
 
 IEnumirator CoroutineName(string incString){
    yield return new WaitForSeconds(1);
    Debug.log("Thank you for sending me "+incString);
 }
 
 

Would this not limit me to only strings b/c I can not make an array with the first element being a string and the second element being a Vector3 or a Game Object, or can I?

Yep exactly though I would remember arrays start at 0 in that code you'll get an our of index error.

So it would limit me to strings?

If you did it that way.

You could always do instead an array of objects.

 object[] coroutineArray = {"CRName", 4}
 
 //Then when you deref you just have to know what the second argument was.
 void StartCoFunction(object[] incObjects){
      StartCoroutine(incObjects[0],incObjects[1]);
 }
  
 IEnumirator CoroutineName(object aValue){
    yield return new WaitForSeconds(1);
    Debug.log("Thank you for sending me "+(int)aValue);
 }

Now I'll warn you i've had unity sometime complain when I mix objects. You end up having to decide to use either system.object or UnityEngine.object, but that is just making sure your consistent.
