    After use in Unstable (nightly) this code:
    Code:
    world.logInfo("%s", console.sourceEntity())
world.callScriptedEntity(console.sourceEntity(), "MyFunc", params)
    game make error like this:
    Code:
    10
(StarException) Entity 10 does not exist or is not a local master scripted entity
    Why? :confused:
    P.S.: In Unstable (not nightly) and Stable version all working.

    For unstable/nightly, you need to use this instead now:

    In your console script -
    Code:
    world.sendEntityMessage(console.sourceEntity(), "Myfunc", params)
    In the objects script, within its init -
    Code:
      message.setHandler("MyFunc", function(_, _, params)
      MyFunc(params)
    end)
    - which will then call the defined function elsewhere in your objects script.

    Note that world.callScriptedEntity will still function between objects.

    Thanks this saved me too! I had a function with no params. Here is how I did it, in case anyone else has that.

    In your console script -
    Code:
    world.sendEntityMessage(console.sourceEntity(), "Myfunc")
    In the objects script, within its init -
    Code:
      message.setHandler("MyFunc", function(_, _)
      MyFunc()
    end)
