New Character's Level

[NunoAle]

Hey guys.

You know like, when a new character appears, and his/her level is always acording to yours? I'd like to do that, but I don't know how.

I'd liek to do this, because, I don't want to give the new character like, level 20, and if your overtrained, he, like, sucks. I want it to be like... Your main character is level 20, he is level 21, main character is 21, he is 22, etc.

How would I do that? I'm thinking conditional branches, although I'm not sure of what to do there.

Thanks.

You can use this set of event commands to achieve this.  This is untested.

@>Comment: Get levels
@>Control Variables: [0001: Your Level] = [Actor]'s Level
@>Control Variables: [0002: Other Level] = [OtherActor]'s Level
@>Comment: Find amount to increase level
@>Control Variables: [0001: Your Level] -= Variable [0001: Your Level]
@>Comment: Increase level
@>Change Level: [OtherActor], + Variable [0001: Your Level]

Be sure to set the level of the new character to 1 in the database.

Alternatively, if you want him to be the same level, do what poccil said, then decrease the new character's level by one.
