I am making a main menu that displays the characters separately. For example, when you open up the main menu, it displays only actor #1. I am trying to make it that so when you press Input::L (Q) or Input::R (W), you can switch between the actors.
The problem is, that when I scroll with the "Q" and "W" keys, it will not proceed to the next or previous actor, but will remain on the first actor only. I can't seem to isolate the issue, but I think it has something to do with @menu_index and @actor_index conflicting with one another. I could be wrong.
Here is my Window_MenuStatus:
As you can see, I tried to modify Window_MenuStatus to conform to the behavior of Window_Status.
Now, here is my Scene_Menu (notice that only have input for Input::R at the moment, which is enough information needed for now):
I had designed each option in the command window to apply to the current actor only, so that there wouldn't a big, ugly, and unnecessary cursor flashing about.
Again, the problem I am having is that when I press the "Q" or "W" keys, it does not proceed to the next actor, but remains on the first actor. Thank you for your assistance.
