[request]One man party[resolved, thanks to Gando]

Hello... i'm working on a one man abs rpg.
Uhm i was wondering could anyone make a script that:
- has a small party window fit for one man only.
- when i press skill/status/equip in the menu , it automatically goes to that single man's
skills/status/equip without choosing him in the menu
(i hope you understand that coz i cant put it in words)

Anyone?

Thanks in advance,
OZ

By the way it's for vx.
 
Hmm, so if i understand this right. You want to change the menu, and make the window that displays all the characters and their HP/SP etc smaller, so that it only fits one party member right?
And then you want to make it so whenever you choose skill/equip/status, it takes you to this party member directly?

If that is so, would you like to see the map in the background? because if you make the Window_MenuStatus  window smaller, it will only display a black background where there are no windows..

I've changed some stuff around and i think it's what you want, if not, tell me and i will change it.
Place theese to scripts in two new empty sections above main:

Window_MenuStatus:
Code:
#==============================================================================
# ** Window_MenuStatus
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  This window displays party member status on the menu screen.
#==============================================================================

class Window_MenuStatus < Window_Selectable
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Object Initialization
  #     x : window X coordinate
  #     y : window Y coordinate
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def initialize(x, y)
    super(x, y, 384, 130)
    refresh
    self.active = false
    self.index = -1
  end
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Refresh
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def refresh
    self.contents.clear
    @item_max = $game_party.members.size
    for actor in $game_party.members
      draw_actor_face(actor, 2, actor.index * 96 + 2, 92)
      x = 104
      y = actor.index * 96 + WLH / 2
      draw_actor_name(actor, x, y)
      draw_actor_class(actor, x + 120, y)
      draw_actor_level(actor, x, y + WLH * 1)
      draw_actor_state(actor, x, y + WLH * 2)
      draw_actor_hp(actor, x + 120, y + WLH * 1)
      draw_actor_mp(actor, x + 120, y + WLH * 2)
    end
  end
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Update cursor
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def update_cursor
    if @index < 0               # No cursor
      self.cursor_rect.empty
    elsif @index < @item_max    # Normal
      self.cursor_rect.set(0, @index * 96, contents.width, 96)
    elsif @index >= 100         # Self
      self.cursor_rect.set(0, (@index - 100) * 96, contents.width, 96)
    else                        # All
      self.cursor_rect.set(0, 0, contents.width, @item_max * 96)
    end
  end
end

Scene_Menu:

  end
end

Just tell me if you want something changed or if i misunderstood you. ^^

Over and out - Gando


EDIT:I changed the scripts from XP scripts to VX scripts, it should work now. :thumb:
 
Uhm, when i press the menu button it says:
Script 'Gando's scene menu' line 20: NoMethodError occurred
undefined method 'words' for # <RPG::System:0x1386da8>

Is this for VX?
 
aaah, didn't notice that you wanted a VX script..
I've barely looked at a VX menu script and never the less written one, but i can try to see if i can do it.
i'll let you know how it goes. :thumb:

Edit: ok, that wasn't very hard. I've updated the scripts from XP scripts to VX, so it should work now.
If you want something else changed, just tell me.
