Never display "-------" for exp.

[death by moogles]

I basically want to make it so that the various status menus will ALWAYS display the actors' exp, rather than displaying "-------" if the actor's level has maxed.

I've tried a few things, but they all caused errors that I didn't know how to fix. I'm hoping that I can ignore levels altogether and use exp as a sort of currency for skills and whatnot.

I'd also like to know if actors' exp continues to increase after their level has been maxed.

I'm using XP. May not matter, but I figure I'll mention it anyway.

Thanks in advance!

Check the Game_Actor class. I'm late for business in the real world, but later I can help you out more.

in Game_Actor, replace

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # * Get EXP String

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  def exp_s

    return @exp_list[@level+1] > 0 ? @exp.to_s : "-------"

  end

 

with

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # * Get EXP String

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  def exp_s

    return @exp.to_s

  end

Wonderful! Thanks a lot! I had narrowed it down to def exp_s, but I wasn't going about it the right way.

Anyway, thanks again!

Just wondering, but does the exp actually tick over once you've reached the max level at all?

Why wouldn't it? It's just a regular variable... and iirc, exp is added and THEN checked for levels, so it is added before checking for max level.

It should. There is a max of 9999999, but up to that point there are no other limiting factors.
