dropdown bool

ItsCold

hi, im trying to make some sort of document with optionbutton in it. is there anyway, for example:

if i choose option A on dropdown 1, then dropdown 2 will provide option B, but if i choose option B on dropdown 1 instead, dropdown 2 will provide option C.

trying to add int value on each option doesnt seem to work

Create multiple variants of dropdown 2 and switch them according to selection in dropdown 1?

yes, for example if i want to make a gender lock job on an RPG, i tried it to get the id then disable those who arent meet the requirement. but i can't use the if inside on_item_selected(id).

Care to post your script for an example so we can take a look?

was stuck here:

extends Control

export (NodePath) var dropdownrank_path
onready var dropdownrank = get_node(dropdownrank_path)

#rank array
var rank_array = ["A", "B", "C", "D", "E"]

func _ready():
	#connect drodown
	dropdownrank.connect("item_selected", self, "on_item_selected")
		
	#add rank array
	add_rank_items()
	
func add_rank_items():
	for item in rank_array:
		dropdownrank.add_item("Rank " + item)

func on_item_selected(ID):
	#print(str(dropdownrank.get_item_text(1))) 
	if on_item_selected((1):
		get_item_

someone told me(he's joking but viable i think) that i can instead make the dropdown myself. basically bunch of nodes with label, add variable for each option then set it to true when clicked/called

Yes, basically construct your own with a basic state machine to track and switch the item visibility. That is certainly one way to go. The way I have gone in the past.

hi. i uhh, not quite sure how to put it into words but so be it. i'm trying to make a dropdown with several choice, here's thecode

extends Control

export (NodePath) var dropdown_path
onready var dropdown = get_node(dropdown_path)

func _ready():
	#add items
	add_items()
	
#add items to dropdown
func add_items():
	dropdown.add_item("Subjugate")
	dropdown.add_item("Collect")
	dropdown.add_item("Escort")
	dropdown.add_item("Safe Guard")
	get_node(add_items()).print(add_items())

what i want to ask is, i want a certain premade dropdown to appear based on player first choice. for example, if player choose to "collect", then a dropdown with a choice of item will appear, but if player choose to "subjugate", then a dropdown of list of enemies will appear instead. tried several ways to take the value, but something is amiss. Any insight is highly appreciated. thank yo.

Got a flag about duplicate posts/topics, I assume since the other topic was showing up among unanswered questions. Seemed to make sense to merge them. Hope you don't mind.
