Conditional Choices in RPG Maker MZ?

[JosephG]

Could anyone point me to a plugin, script or idea on how to get conditional choices working in RPG Maker MZ? I just need a simple way of saying:

Choice A: Say Hi
Choice B: Say Bye
Choice C: Slap in face (Condition, variable = 12345)

There seems to be plugins for RPG Maker MV but not for MZ

UPDATE:
It seems you can add additional choices with MZ, simply by having two "choices" events one after the other. HOWEVER, this does not work when you wrap it in a condition for one of them. Ugh...

You could simply make a conditional branch with two sets of choices.

If variable = X,
Choice A
Choice B

If variable = Y,
Choice A
Choice B
Choice C

In terms of a plugin solution - Visustella Message Core provides choice window textcodes for showing/enabling choices based upon switches (such as <Show Switch: x>, <Enable Switch: x> ect) so you could check the value of the variable then switch on a switch if it's true to have this behaviour.

Thanks. The issue here is that you then need to either have the same code copy/pasted into Choice A and Choice B under both "if" conditions (or use common events).

Thank you! This is more useful to me, although I admit having <Show Variable:4> would be infinitely better since switches only allow two states, on/off, whereas with a variable I can have anything I like. I'll have to use switches as this is the best option available currently.

You can use Label and Jump to Label to avoid duplicating the code.

I noticed an odd issue where, whereby the "hidden" choice when using <Show Switch: x> still takes up space in the choices pop-up box. I wonder if there's a way around that.

UPDATE:
Also, I verified multiple times that, even if my switch is ON, the choice does not become visible. I then tried using <Enabled Switch: x> instead, but the choice is always disabled no matter if switch is ON or OFF.

Oh right, I didn't realize that was possible- thanks!
