[Resolved] Different $game_variables based on which actor

[aaronmanners]

I'm having some trouble figuring this out, and I know it's a fairly simple solution, I just can't get it.
[rgss]  def draw_actor_parameter(actor, x, y, type)
    case type
    when 0
      parameter_name = Vocab::atk
      parameter_value = actor.atk
    when 1
      parameter_name = Vocab::def
      parameter_value = actor.def
    when 2
      parameter_name = Vocab::spi
      parameter_value = actor.spi
    when 3
      parameter_name = Vocab::agi
      parameter_value = actor.agi
    when 4
      parameter_name = "SP"
      if actor == 1 then
        parameter_value = $game_variables[3]
      elsif actor == 4 then
        parameter_value = $game_variables[4]
      elsif actor == 3 then
        parameter_value = $game_variables[5]
      elsif actor == 2 then
        parameter_value = $game_variables[9]
      end
    end
    self.contents.font.color = system_color
    self.contents.draw_text(x, y, 120, WLH, parameter_name)
    self.contents.font.color = normal_color
    self.contents.draw_text(x + 120, y, 36, WLH, parameter_value, 2)
  end
[/rgss]
More specifically,
[rgss] 
    when 4
      parameter_name = "SP"
      if actor == 1 then
        parameter_value = $game_variables[3]
      elsif actor == 4 then
        parameter_value = $game_variables[4]
      elsif actor == 3 then
        parameter_value = $game_variables[5]
      elsif actor == 2 then
        parameter_value = $game_variables[9]
      end
[/rgss]
Currently, it displays nothing, not 0, just a space. How can I make it so it will show the different variable based on which actor it is used for?
(I'm adding SP to the Status menu)

Thanks in advance

Edit: Figured it out. Did it by confirming actor.name. Case closed.

I would suggest doing this by actor id, but name should work as long as the names don't change.

That's what I was looking for, didn't realize it needed .actor_id though. But yeah, it works.
