Blocks that take actors as arguments, can you use maps?

I was experimenting but ran across a few issues that I won't go into. The short version is that I want to use a get map key/value
block as an argument to a custom block that takes an attribute that stores actors.

So does anyone have experience with this, before I go wading in a little deeper? I realize when I click on the block to select and attribute, my map attribute won't show up, but for example, I should be able to drag a get-map-value block into the attribute slot for the custom block.

What say you stenclyrs?

That should work.

Thanks rob. I went ahead and looked into it further, but I get class cast errors every time I try to test.

Can you post a screenshot of what you're doing?

I narrowed it down, disabling events first, then blocks of code, then individual lines. Basically I have a hashmap that  is used by various events to store data (aptly called 'data') and one of those values is the nearest actor, calculated each tick.
Except, again I keep having class cast errors.

Make data a map attribute. The variable for calling it sounds like something missing.
For lists, the hardcode iswith an underscore.

Hope it helps.

you shouldn't type the name "data" but insert the attribute. do you have a snippet where you createe it ?

Needed an underscore. Shit, thanks Commander.
