How do i change the players opacity?

[battlestar_caprica]

Title says it all. How do i change the players opacity? Is it a global variable or do i need to define a local one?

I understand that i need to use "blah.opacity = 200"
but what is the "blah"...?

Thanks in advance.

First, add the following to an empty script section:

class Game_Character
  attr_accessor :opacity
end

Then, to change the player's opacity:

$game_player.opacity=128 # 50% opaque

or you can do it with an event, just click move event at the first part of the game, then make sure it is on player. Go to the thing that says Opacity Change and once you have selected it, click ok.

I would have suggested that as well; the event command is called "Set Move Route".

@>Set Move Route: Player
@>              : Change Opacity: 128

Thank you to both of you. Yes, i had already thought of the event command but i'm dealing with terrain tags in the script i'm creating so i didn't want an event for every single tile on the map.  ;D
So i was looking for a way to do it with scripting. Thanks again, i have it working now.
