create prefab called [string] from array?[SOLVED]

[westingtyler]

Basically, you click an icon of a chair. that icon game object is called "oak chair."

I want to create a prefab of "oak chair" when I click that icon. I just want to save the icon name string, then create a prefab from a list of prefabs, that is also named what the string is named.

Also, there are like 100 different chairs to do this with.

Can I do this with a 1.8.3 array, or should I use arraymaker, or some other method? I am really stumped. I really don't want to have to make a string switch with 100 options in it.

with arraymaker you can have a hashtable where the key is the icon's name string and the value is the corresponding prefab

thanks. it works, and here is a picture of the action I used.

ps. does this need to be an "action sequence"? I am afraid it may try to do the second action first if I don't specify they should go in order?
