Public Static Variable Not Updating in other scripts

in script A, I define a variable public static string fooC;, I update it in a function,

       // this script is called "A"
        public override void OnSceneWasLoaded(int buildIndex, string sceneName)
        {
            // LoggerInstance.Msg(sceneName);

            fooC = sceneName;
                  
            // for whatever reason this is what i want it to be.
            LoggerInstance.Msg(RPCname);


                                                           // this calls the stored
            discManage.GetActivityManager().UpdateActivity(fooB.RPCloader, (result) =>
            {
               
                if (result == Discord.Result.Ok)
                {
                    LoggerInstance.Msg("BLRP Loaded!");
                    
                }
                else
                {
                    LoggerInstance.Error("Error Loading BLRP");
                }
            });

        }

       // this script is called "A"
        public override void OnSceneWasLoaded(int buildIndex, string sceneName)
        {
            // LoggerInstance.Msg(sceneName);

            fooC = sceneName;
                  
            // for whatever reason this is what i want it to be.
            LoggerInstance.Msg(RPCname);


                                                           // this calls the stored
            discManage.GetActivityManager().UpdateActivity(fooB.RPCloader, (result) =>
            {
               
                if (result == Discord.Result.Ok)
                {
                    LoggerInstance.Msg("BLRP Loaded!");
                    
                }
                else
                {
                    LoggerInstance.Error("Error Loading BLRP");
                }
            });

        }

and then I try to access it in another script,

    public static class fooB
    {
        public static Discord.Activity RPCloader = new Discord.Activity
        {
            State = fooA.FooC,

            Timestamps =
                {
                    Start = 4
                },

            Assets =
                {
                    LargeImage = "loadinglarge",
                    SmallImage = "smalloading"

                },

            
        };

    public static class fooB
    {
        public static Discord.Activity RPCloader = new Discord.Activity
        {
            State = fooA.FooC,

            Timestamps =
                {
                    Start = 4
                },

            Assets =
                {
                    LargeImage = "loadinglarge",
                    SmallImage = "smalloading"

                },

            
        };

but the variable is just at the default "RPCname", im sorry if this is really bad formating, im new to asking with help, and i can't find anything on google to help me. I don't know if this breaks OOP or not

where did u access the fooC ?

izzint•2y ago

I accessed it from another script its like creating a new field i think? Im thinking that when the other script asks for fooC it's too early

Steak•2y ago

was it this part?

Steak•2y ago

izzint•2y ago

yea sorry about my code, I still have lots to learn about readability

Steak•2y ago

it is probably too early just re-create a new discord obj

izzint•2y ago

i could probably make a while loop or something untill the value is not null, but that might cause a whole lot of stuff

Steak•2y ago

do you want State is the sceneName ?

izzint•2y ago

what could that do?

Steak•2y ago

no, i mean do want the Discord State is equal to the scene name?

izzint•2y ago

yea

Steak•2y ago

maybe just create static function to get new RPC loader

izzint•2y ago

oh yea, good idea

Steak•2y ago

or rather than creating a new one get the stored RPC Loader reference, but set the State from a parameter
