Save Value Command

Saves the Value ? of a Data Source ? to a Variable or a Switch.

Source

A source is something in the engine that lets you pull data from it. They generally exist in three categories:

Non-Contextual - Does not require a Unique ID.

E.g. Camera, Game, Party.

Contextual - Requires a Unique ID based on Context.

E.g. Equipment, Hero, Skill.

Database - Requires an Index Value ?, and draws directly from the Database.

E.g. Database - Character.

Variable saves the Value ? of a character string (text), to an integer (whole number) or a floating point (floating point number).

Switch checks for a true or false value.

E.g. An equipment slot / is occupied. If true = on if false = off.

Unique IDs can be saved from data sources like, Party, Battle Manager, or from commands like Save Entity Unique ID ? or Save Context Unique ID ?.
