switch(friendlyFire)
{
case 0:
self printGlobalPlayerAction("No Friendly Fire");
break;
case 1:
self printGlobalPlayerAction("Friendly Fire");
break;
case 2:
self printGlobalPlayerAction("Reflected Friendly Fire");
break;
case 3:
self printGlobalPlayerAction("Shared Friendly Fire");
break;
}
Nothing happens.
If I write the same with if and else statements, it works fine:
if(friendlyFire == 0)
{
self printGlobalPlayerAction("No Friendly Fire");
}
else if(friendlyFire == 1)
{
self printGlobalPlayerAction("Friendly Fire");
}
else if(friendlyFire == 2)
{
self printGlobalPlayerAction("Reflected Friendly Fire");
}
else if(friendlyFire == 3)
{
self printGlobalPlayerAction("Shared Friendly Fire");
}
Why? I'm using GSC Studio 16.2.15.0 and I'm pretty sure I can write switch case statements correctly.

I don't think the 'case' statement is supported within gsc.

It is supported. In the original GSCs you can find many of them.

they are all supported but for console it doesn't work on PC it does
That might explain it.

Obviously yes since the if blocks work. I thought this was not meaningful for the question but here it is:
friendlyFire = level.friendlyFire; // Get the current value
friendlyFire++; // Increment it since this is meant to be a toggle through values
// Reset the value if it is out of bounds
if(friendlyFire == 4)
{
friendlyFire = 0;
}
// Place conditions here in order to print the state. I would like to use switch case but it's not working correctly

No, I want to use switch case statements.

It may be the compiler, if you could compile one with the if statement and one with the switch, I can check this for you.

Can or will this be fixed? It would be great since there doesn't seem to be a reason for it
