You can always pass the variable in as a parameter, for instance,

To have a global variable, just declare it outside of any function.

You get the idea. As long as it is declared outside the DarkGDK function, it is global. Make sure that it is above the DarkGDK function and NOT below it.

You can also make a variable local to a specific function by declaring the variable in that function.
