Help in RM2K

Yes, I was wondering if I could make a Party system, similar to FF12's where you could switch out characters in your party with standby characters. I'm not sure how to do this, however, so I'm in need of some help.

Since I donīt got a copy of FFXII I doesnīt quite get what you are asking for...

Any other game with the same thing or could you be more precisely?

But if you are just talking about a choice on the meny or a save point that you can access and then switch places of your characters in and out of the party, then I think you could use our Search service here on Charas to find a topic with a Tutorial.

Well, youre going to want to browse the tutorial forum, first.

Ive never played ff12...but if its anything like it sounds, its simply a matter of  conditional branches, Common Events, a couple switches and variables.

Tutorials tutorials tutorials, thats what i always say.

You'll learn more by teaching yourself, and gain self respect, and build character.

Sorry...not to sound unchairitable, but it would benifit for you to look for help where its already posted, rather than asking others to go out of their way.

People are usually more willing to help If they see that you are making the effort.

If you get stumped along the way, and explain your system, Ill help however I can, but you gotta make the effort yourself, initially.

Good luck dude.

Is it similar to the from ToS?

Okay, this is basically how the FF12 system works. You have 5 or 6 characters in your party, but only 3 can be active in battle. In the menu, you can switch out which characters are active and which are on standby simply by picking the "party" tab and selecting. Is there any way I can do that?

[ZeroKirbyX]

Thats... beyond simple. If you can't figure out how to do that on your own, you obviously need to learn the basics better.

He explained it wrong.

At any point, in or out a battle, you can change your characters, unless they are being targeted by an enemy or by one of your spells.

It's possible to do in and out of battle. Out of battle is very simple, so I won't bother to explain it.

In Battle: Create a battle command called "Party Change" Set it to Event Phase or whatever your version calls it.

Second, in your battle, make a condition page where if "Party Change" is used, it brings up a text box and a choice box. If you have more then 8 characters in the game, this might get hard. First, you'll need condiction branches for who is in and who isn't in your party. The people who arn't in your party will go in the box choices. Once you select the member you want in your party, replace that member with the member that used the "Party Change" command.

I can dumb it down more if needed... but Warxe or DragonBlaze can probally explain it better.

EDIT: Also, for future problems you might have, please post them in the Tutorial Section or the Programming section.
