Multiple of Same Actor?

[kaze950]

I'm looking for a script that simply allows you to have more than 1 of an actor. For example, let's say you have an actor named  "Soldier"and you want to have 5 Soldiers. By default, you can only have 1 copy of the actor. I need a script to make it so you can have unique copies of the same actor.

Thanks to anyone who can do this or direct me to an existing script.

it took me a while to figure it out when i first tried it, i think it was the way i name the character that was messing me up. try out the demo and see exactly how formar set it up

It's Fomar there's just one r.

@kaze - When you say it didn't seem to work what do you mean? I might be able to help if you just don't understand how it works.

For example, the starting character is Aluxes. I do an 'add character' event for 'Aluxes', but it doesn't appear. I still only have one.

Sorry for the slow reply, I forgot to subscribe to this topic and I don't check here all that regularly.

Here's another demo

I've slightly changed it to show you how to use events to make multiple copies.

The party change event which you use to add still works the same, and you can't have more than one copy of the first party member (due to laziness on my part), you can have two of Basil, Cyrus etc just not Aluxes. It isn't how you create more party members, it just adds ones you have made.
However it probably won't help you enough. If you told me more about your systems and gameplay I could probably do more.
For example do you have a party switching script if so I could adapt it so that when you make another copy it adds them to the reserve team.
