Multiple if statements into one?

[searchwindows]

This seems like a basic one but I forgot how it was done...
I'll go ahead and show you what I'm trying to achieve.

Here's an example of a normal way.

Code: Select all

default hour = 0
if hour ==  1:
	call screen room_1_screen
elif hour == 2:
	call screen room_2_screen
elif hour == 3:
	call screen room_3_screen
elif hour == 4:
	call screen room_4_screen

So by the above code if I were to create up to 10 hours, I'd had to write it down one by one until the tenth hour.
If I were to have up to 50 hours, writing that will require 50 if statements which sounds inefficient.

Is it possible to turn all that into one if statement?
I'd assume I'd have to create a function. And I'd call the function to make the hour pass and by doing that, "room_x_screen", x would go up as well.
I don't know where to start!
Sorry for the hideous explanation..

Try something like this

Code: Select all

screen room(hour):
  text "time elapsed: [hour]"

and call by:

Code: Select all

call screen room(1)

But I can't confirm it because I'm not with my computer right now tho
