setElementData

[milkshake333]

Is it possible to setElementData in one script and use getElementData in another script to retrieve the data?

And also is it possible for resources? From one resource to another?

[Zango]

Element data is existing, globally, for as long as the element exists, I think.

This validates your question, yes element data can be set and retrieved cross resource.

yes, also any events you will create in one resource can be triggered by another resource
