Quick development question: is there a way to hardcode a "set level equal to"-type thing for a character who hasn't joined the party yet in XP? I want to use two different stat development templates for one character, but it would be weird for the character's level to reset to a certain level after changing templates, even if I set the stats comparatively high at first-level.

I don't really recall seeing a "give EXP" or "set EXP" in the built-in commands, though if I'm just missing something, that would be a solution.

Are you trying to set it so their level is the same as someone else's level, or do you want to choose which level they start at? O.o

If it's something else, then I cannot help since I am useless there. ^_^;;;

Yeah, this.

Ah, I see.

There is no direct way to that in RMXP, unfortunately. There's a "Change EXP" on the third page. I just checked it, and it increased their level. I'm not sure what the difference between that in setting their level in the database is, though. O.o There could be a use.

I think you can use conditional branches to achieve somewhat the same effect. Like if main character's level = X, then joining character's level = X. That could get tedious, though. I would hope it's not something you need a script for. >.>

Good luck! :D

Quite amazingly simple, actually.(well, at least compared to the REAL eventings out there... like evented CMS, steal, or CBS...)

1: Set a variable to use.
2: Event screen 1st page. Go to control variables, and with the set out variable, which I'll call ACTOR_VAR, go to operation SET, and then to operand ACTOR. Set actor to the actor character you want, and to LEVEL. Now, ACTOR_VAR will have the level of your party member(that you have chosen).
3: SUBTRACT ACTOR_VAR by exactly 1. I'll show you why, but there ARE other ways.
4: Go to the 3rd event page, and change level. Choose the actor you want to change the level to, and decrease 99 levels.
5: now, go the same event, and in the change level, instead of the constant, set amount, go to ACTOR_VAR. Add it, and it'll be the same level as the party member you have chosen.


I'm almost certain that the ways I listed should work.
Obviously, there are a dozen ways to do this, I'm pretty sure quite literally. Hell, I even know how to set this as a common event and be able to call it all the time with x amount of party members, but... I'll let you figure all these different things out. I could make a tutorial on this if there isn't already, and list the many different ways and different things to go around this, but I'm an amazingly lazy guy
