Summary

So, I'm making a game where a player's innate element (Fire, Water, Stone, Wind) is dependent on their astrological sign. To achieve this, I have set up an event where the player inputs their birth month and day. The birth month is simple, all they have to do is type in 'January' if their birth month is 'January'. This is where it get's a wee bit complicated. At present, for the specific day, which is important, I have them input a two digit number. However, this is where I get...

So, I'm making a game where a player's innate element (Fire, Water, Stone, Wind) is dependent on their astrological sign. To achieve this, I have set up an event where the player inputs their birth month and day. The birth month is simple, all they have to do is type in 'January' if their birth month is 'January'. This is where it get's a wee bit complicated. At present, for the specific day, which is important, I have them input a two digit number. However, this is where I get in trouble. Astrological signs don't fit neatly in a month. In the case of Capricorn, (December 22 - January 20,) the dates begin and end in the middle of two months, so I can't simply do a 'Variable 1 is less than or equal to 31' do set the date for the sign.

This is a fragment of the event. The part for the month is already set, I just need to figure out how to set it up so that the variable number coincides with the dates. If I could do '1 ~ 20' in the conditional branch, I'd be in business, yet I do not believe it works that way.
And yes, I do recognize that it would be much simpler to do 'What is your astrological sign?', but this is mostly for the sake of aesthetic, and will give the player just that much more connection with the main character.


Thank you in advance.
