[Solved] Remove item by variable (script call help)

[yuyu!]

Hi, friends.

I've been working on a system for giving NPCs gifts, but seem to have run into a bit of a wall with MV's script calls. Does anyone know how to have items removed by variable? When using "select item" the item's id is stored in variable #12 and I would like to have a script call automatically remove the item by the id stored in that variable.

Here is what I tried (along with many variations of this):
$gameParty.loseItem($dataItems[$gameVariables[12]], 1);

I feel like I'm missing something simple. It didn't crash or anything...just didn't work. ;_;


On another note...I may just be calling MV scripts wrong or something? I tried to also have a script call within a conditional branch check variable values between numbers and that didn't seem to work either.

For example:
$gameVariables[12] >= 35 && $gameVariables[12] <= 40;

It's tough to get used to the script calls in a new engine. ;___;

$gameParty.gainItem($dataItems[$gameVariables[12]], -1);

I had no luck with that, either...

This is solved now. :3 Apparently you have to add ".value" and use parenthesis. I guess it's a JS thing. :B In case someone else tries this (you can also use "loseItem"):

Code Select Expand

$gameParty.gainItem($dataItems[$gameVariables.value(6)], -1);

The same goes for the conditional variables I tried to use:

Code Select Expand

$gameVariables.value(var) == 1 && $gameVariables.value(var) == 3;
