return event.id into a variable

[higgle2piggle 0]

Just a quick one:

How can I return an event id into a variable?

 

The reason:

In order to use the 'returned event id value' that has been stored into a 'designated variable' of my choice, to be used in the Event Conditions.

in the meantime, you can use this line in a script command:

$game_variables[10] = @event_id

 

the variable will now hold the id of the event who called that script.

* change 10 into the variable number you want to use.

Same answer. My script stores the ID of the currently processing event at all times in a given variable. You can always store the value in a separate variable for later use.

Thank you very much, that's exactly what I was after. :)
