[CoolAndrew11]

Hey, I found this sript a month ago, and just started working on it again the past 2 weeks ad haven't been able to figure it out. Can anybody please maybe make a demo with this script or something? It would really help me in my game.

What don't you understand about it? The directions are there.

To call it;

Spoiler

Put this in an event > call script command;

$scene = Scene_PartyChange.new(value)
value = the maximum active party size. which is usually 4

To reserve a party member do following in the same call script comand

$game_party.actors[index].required = true
index = 0-3, where 0 is the first party member and 3 is the last

Here is an example;

Lets say we don't want Arshes to change and want to change the other party members. Arshes is usally the first one in the party and ther can be only 4 people in the party;

We first go to the event;
Then double click the event's command list;
Go to page 3;
Look for "Script...";
Write the following;

$game_party.actors[0].required = true
$scene = Scene_PartyChange.new(4)

Hope that helps;

i get the directions, but for example:

class Game_Actor < Game_Battler
# ---------------------
attr_accessor :required
[...]
@required = false
[...]

what do i change the [...] to?

and here:

class Game_Party
# ---------------------
attr_accessor :reserve_actors
[...]
@reserve_actors = []
[...]
# ---------------------
def add_actor(actor_id) # replace this method
    actor = $game_actors[actor_id]
    if @actors.size < 4 and not @actors.include?(actor)
      @actors.push(actor)
      $game_player.refresh
    else
      if not @reserve_actors.include?(actor)
        @reserve_actors.push(actor)
      end
    end
  end
# ---------------------
def remove_actor(actor_id) # replace this method
  @actors.delete($game_actors[actor_id])
  @reserve_actors.delete($game_actors[actor_id])
  $game_player.refresh
end
# ---------------------
def swap(actor1, actor2) # new method
    error = false
    if not @actors.include?(actor1)
      error = true
    end
    if not @reserve_actors.include?(actor2)
      error = true
    end
    if error
      print("Cannot swap members.  One or both are not in the porper position.")
    end
    temp = actor1
    @actors.delete(actor1)
    @reserve_actors.push(temp)
    add_actor(actor2.id)
    @reserve_actors.delete(actor2)
  end
# ---------------------
 def transfer_to_party(reserve_actor) # new method
    if not @reserve_actors.include?(reserve_actor)
      print("Warning: Requested character is not in the reserve party.")
      return
    end
    if @actors.size == 4
      print("Warning: Main party is full.")
      return
    end
    add_actor(reserve_actor.id)
    @reserve_actors.delete(reserve_actor)
  end
# ---------------------
 def transfer_to_reserve(main_party_actor) # new method
    if not @actors.include?(main_party_actor)
      print("Warning: Requested character is not in the main party.")
      return
    end
    remove_actor(main_party_actor.id)
    @reserve_actors.push(main_party_actor)
  end

Where it says:

def add_actor(actor_id) # replace this method

what do I change that to?

The [...] just means do leave the default code there.

What does it mean when it asks me to replace the meathod? Do i replace it with a number, or a name or something?
