I have this bit of code as my menu scene:
The problem is that I don't know what to put in the 'update_status' method to get the player status window to show the stats of the player defined by the cursor index of 'window_target'.
I'm not sure if my explanation makes any sense. In other words, the idea is that in the main menu screen I would have the command window (with 3 commands: Items, Skills and Equip) and below it a target window (which activates when selecting Skills or Equip from command window). The target window is just the default Window_MenuStatus class with nothing but a 72x72 picture of the character. When the target window is activated, a status window would appear next to it, showing the stats of the player to which the cursor of the target window is pointing. Whew... I hope you get the idea. And thanks in advance!
