Turning on switch based on variable

[jlusco]

I am trying to find a way to turn on a switch with the same numerical id as a variable.
For example, I use an item with an ID of 151 to trigger a comment even. The comment event sets the variable to 151 (this part I have already got working) I then want it to turn on switch 151 or if the Item is 152 it turns on switch 152 and so on. I can't figure out how to get it to turn on a switch in this manner. I know it will require a script call but I just cannot figure it out.

Dunno bout MZ.
In MV, it will be $gameSwitches.value(switchID, $gameVariables.value(varID) == switchID)

Note: value is for getting a value; setValue is for setting a value.

This should turn on the switch with ID equal to the current value of game variable 123:

$gameSwitches.setValue($gameVariables.value(123), true);

Replace 123 with the ID of your variable. If you want to turn a switch off, swap the true for false.

This applies to MV and MZ, they both use the same internal structure for switches & variables.

That worked perfectly thank you so much
