Be careful of the parenthesis around the variable you're switching on.  If you accidentally use braces instead (ex: switch {_myVar} do{...), it won't error, but will always return default.<br>

Using [[switch]] with strings is case-sensitive, (unlike string comparisons).

<dt class="note">'''[[User:General_Barron|General Barron]]'''<dd class="note">
To be safe about the case sensitivity issue, use the [[toLower]] or [[toUpper]] command to force all strings to a certain case.

It's possible to use [[Boolean]] value as a switch and [[Code]] as case. One thing to take special care in such case is that code must be in parentheses. Example:
<code>
[[switch]] ([[true]]) [[do]]
{
[[case]] (_boolVar): {someCode};
[[case]] (unit1 [[distance]] unit2 > 5): {someCode};
};
</code>

BEWARE:
<br>Sometimes, and I'm unsure why, numbers are treated differently (A2OA 1.63) with quote-wraps that worked
<br>in earlier code now not working unless quote-wraps are removed, with otherwise identical code.
<br><code>
_number1 = (floor random 10)
switch (_number1) do
{
case "0":
{
  _vehicle setobjecttexture[0,"\mymodpath\textures\num1.paa"];
};
//etc
};
</code>
<br>
<br>this one below works, and the one above stopped working with 1.63
<br>
<code>
switch (_number1) do
{
case 0:
{
  _vehicle setobjecttexture[0,"\mymodpath\textures\num1.paa"];
};
//etc
};

As of Arma 3 v1.36, switch returns true (BOOL) if the condition doesn't match any case and no default block is defined.<br>
<br>
switch (0) do {case (1): {"one"};}<br>
-> true
