[Resolved] Always Have Something Equip

[battlestar_caprica]

Okay right now if you have a bronze helm equip, you can take it off and wear nothing. I want to script it so that you CANNOT take it off for nothing, but you can take it off for other helmets.
In other words, your starting equipment cannot be unequipped unless it is replaced with new equipment. I have no idea where to begin, and any help would be really appreciated.

~Thanks.

Well, there are 2 ways:

1) Only do this if you do direct mods to the default classes. I strongly don't suggest this method, as any script which modifies the method could render this useless (such as the SDK).

In Scene_Equip, find

    # If C button was pressed
    if Input.trigger?(Input::C)
      # Play equip SE
      $game_system.se_play($data_system.equip_se)
      # Get currently selected data on the item window
      item = @item_window.item
      # Change equipment
      @actor.equip(@right_window.index, item == nil ? 0 : item.id)

Change that with:

    # If C button was pressed
    if Input.trigger?(Input::C)
      # Get currently selected data on the item window
      item = @item_window.item
      # return if nil item
      if item == nil
        $game_system.se_play($data_system.buzzer_se)
        return
      end
      # Play equip SE
      $game_system.se_play($data_system.equip_se)
      # Change equipment
      @actor.equip(@right_window.index, item == nil ? 0 : item.id)

If you do this, I also suggest doing this method below, as a second chance percaution, incase some script uses the Game_Actor#equip method.

2) Just add this below all your other scripts.

class Game_Actor
  alias_method :seph_mustequipsomething_gmactr_equip, :equip
  def equip(equip_type, id)
    if id == 0
      $game_system.se_play($data_system.buzzer_se)
      return
    end
    seph_mustequipsomething_gmactr_equip(equip_type, id)
  end
end

Ah thank you Seph! I've been trying to create a visual-equipment system but character's with big hair were getting in the way of their helmets. Anyway, i tested it and you fixed this problem. Thank you.
