lol wut?

no, i have no idea what that is, but it doesnt look right.


i want to make it so a certain actor always acts as an npc in battle. like an ally that you cant control. the ally will never be controllable ever, in any battle. period. they just help you out.

like sephiroth in one part of FF7
in that battle, sephiroth is in your party, but he cannot be controlled, and will heal you if you die.

I know what your talking about thats why I gave you that script, no need for a video that I skipped over. It was in FF12 as well as RMVX. Its not NPC its Auto-battle, its just that I didn't look at that script well enough. I just saw the word autobattle script and got it.

The word your looking for is Guest not NPC: Makes the character behave automatically, without being controlled by the player. I can try to make it, but we should let Kellesede do it.

LOL, you shouldn't doubt your own ability I am sure you could do this.

Anyways, I WILL take a look into these scripts bob, I just have A REALLY tight/busy schedule at the moment, and I have no idea WHEN I will have the time to check these out.

my schedule:
Mon-thurs: School most of the day
Fri-sun: work most of the day

I have a 7 day schedule, every week. School also generates a lot of group work/other homework which that in combination with sleep (which I do not get near enough of, because of Linux XD, I don't remember the last time i booted to windows) takes up most of my free time.

Sorry, that was a bit off-topic, but I am trying to say either A ) Do not rely on me or B ) Have A LOT of patience.

Okay, I'll see what I can do. If it messes it up and I don't know why, I'll see if you can fix it.

Haha, I wasn't implying you HAD to do it, it just seemed like you were cutting yourself short Although, if you are looking into expanding on your scripting abilities this would be great practice for you.
