How can I make KSPField give real time response to a part that its been used on? (Parts Action Window)

[Anth]

I have a button that I press called "Turn On" and when I click on it it gives me current in game data once.

How do I have it give me current constant data like, the science parts giving temperature or atmospheric information?

I have KSPField determine the variable, but it needs to run within a KSPEvent to add the button and only updates on pressing the button.

I want to take away the button and just have it update the number automatically.

Any help is appreciated

omg. 2 minutes after I figure it out. Sorry

Can we see your code?

using UnityEngine;

namespace Example
{
    class ExampleModule : PartModule
    {
        public static void Log(string message)
        {
            //Debug.Log("Example:" + message);
        }

        [KSPField(isPersistant = false, guiActive = true)]
        public float exampleFloat = 0;

        public override void OnUpdate()
        {
            exampleFloat = this.part.persistentId;
        }

    }

    [KSPAddon(KSPAddon.Startup.Flight, false)]
    public class Example : MonoBehaviour
    {

        public static void Log(string message)
        {
            //Debug.Log("Example:" + message);
        }

        public void Start()
        {
            if (HighLogic.LoadedSceneIsFlight)
            {
                for (var i = 0; i < FlightGlobals.Vessels.Count; i++)
                {
                    for (var j = 0; j < FlightGlobals.Vessels.parts.Count; j++)
                    {
                        for (int k = 0; k < FlightGlobals.Vessels.parts[j].Modules.Count; k++)
                        {
                            Log(FlightGlobals.Vessels.parts[j].Modules[k].moduleName);
                            if (FlightGlobals.Vessels.parts[j].Modules[k].moduleName == "ModuleCargoPart" || FlightGlobals.Vessels.parts[j].Modules[k].moduleName == "ModulePartVariants" || FlightGlobals.Vessels.parts[j].Modules[k].moduleName == "ModuleIRVariant")
                            {
                                FlightGlobals.Vessels.parts[j].AddModule("ExampleModule", false);
                            }
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

That's an example of what the code is. Dont want to show what its for yet.

OnUpdate was what I was missing.
