Code help needed- Custom Job Point System [ResolvedForNow]

[Injury]

Hey there, haven't posted in a while, but I'm back to working on learning Ruby/RGSS. I have written this preliminary code as a startup class for the job point system. All it is really is an attribute I tried to add to the Game_Actor class to handle jp and jpXP. I need some help progressing this code to actually work!

Here it is.

This is in the Game_Actor public instances variable section.

Spoiler

attr_reader   :jp                       # Job Points
  attr_reader   :jpXP                     # Job Point Experience Points

This is the code I made in a seperate class

Spoiler

class Job_System
  def initialization
    print job_points
    print job_pointsXP
    job_points = $game_actor.jp
    job_pointsXP = $game_actor.jpXP
    $game_actor.jpXP == 100
    case $game_actor.jpXP
      when 100
        $game_actor.jp += 1
      end
  end
end

Now, do I have to inherit the Game_Actor class to make it work? or what? I need some help!

thanks!

First, $game_actor is not what you want to call. You need to call a specific actr object, say $game_actors[1]. I'm not sure exactly what you're Jp system is, but if you want help with it, PM me and I can give you hand.

All I'm doing is whenever they defeat an enemy, they also get a certain ammount of jp. knowing that would take a lot to assign values to each monster, I just figured to start out, make it so you get jp per level and then go from there. Sorry if this is confusing...Someone can lock or drop it I guess.
