[Unsupported] Actor & Party's Self Switches XP

Actor & Party's Self Switches XP
Version: 1
Version: 1
Introduction
This script is a tad similar to that of the built in feature: Self Switches. For those not familiar with Self Switches, Self Switches pretty much pertain to a specific event. Example: Treasure Chests.
Actor & Party Self Switches allows developers to set certain switches pertaining to a certain party member or actor.
Let's say, you set a switch to Party Member 1 (Aluxes) to true. In case you ever change party members, the switch will still be turned on for that member in the party (Aluxes).
Or how about if you want to set a certain switch for a specific actor instead of a member in the party. You can do that as well!
Features
- Set party member's self switches via call script.
- Get party member's self switches via call script.
- Set actor's self switches via call script.
- Get actor's self switches via call script.

? ? How to Use ?
? ?
? ? Setting up a party member's self switch: ?
? To set a self switch for a party member, you'll need to call this script: ?
? party_self_switch(member, id, bool) ?
? member: Party Member. (0, 1, 2, 3) ?
? id: Party Member Self Switch Identification. Example: 'A', 'B' ?
? bool: true or false. ?
? Example: party_self_switch(0, 'A', true) sets whoever may be the 1st party ?
? member's switch "A" to true. ?
? ?
? ? Getting a party member's self switch: ?
? To get a self switch of a party member, you can call this script. ?
? party_self_switch(member, id) ?
? member: Party Member. (0, 1, 2, 3) ?
? id: Party Member Self Switch Identification. Example: 'A', 'B' ?
? Example: party_self_switch(0, 'A') gets switch "A" of whoever may be the ?
? 1st party member. ?
? ?
? ? Using party member's self switches in evented if conditions. ?
? You're probably wondering how, right? Alright. To do this, go to the ?
? conditional branch event command, click on the fourth tab, select Script ?
? and type either of these in the input form: ?
? party_self_switch(member, id) == true ?
? party_self_switch(member, id) == false ?
? ?
? ? Setting up an actor's self switch: ?
? To set a self switch for an actor, you'll need to call this script: ?
? actor_self_switch(actor, id, bool) ?
? actor: Character ID from the database. (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) ?
? id: Party Member Self Switch Identification. Example: 'A', 'B' ?
? bool: true or false. ?
? Example: actor_self_switch(1, 'A', true) sets Actor 1's switch "A" to true.?
? ?
? ? Getting an actor's self switch: ?
? To get a self switch of an actor, you can call this script. ?
? actor_self_switch(actor, id) ?
? actor: Character ID from the database. (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) ?
? id: Party Member Self Switch Identification. Example: 'A', 'B' ?
? Example: actor_self_switch(1, 'A') gets switch "A" of Actor 1. ?

? ? Using an actor's self switch in evented if conditions. ?
? To do this, go to the conditional branch event command, click on the fourth?
