[Resolved] menu question

i have modded my scene_menu alot over time, i was wondering if you could look at my code and tell me why when i select equipment it goes straight to the first player and wont let me choose char 2,3,or 4.

Code:
#==============================================================================

# ** Scene_Menu

#  This class performs menu screen processing.

class Scene_Menu

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # * Object Initialization

  #     menu_index : command cursor's initial position

    @menu_index = menu_index

    # Make command window

    s1 = "Quest"

    s2 = $data_system.words.item

    s3 = $data_system.words.skill

    s4 = $data_system.words.equip

    s5 = "Save"

    s6 = "End Game"

    @command_window = Window_Command.new(160, [s1, s2, s3, s4, s5, s6])

    @command_window.index = @menu_index

    # If number of party members is 0

    if $game_party.actors.size == 0

      # Disable items, skills, equipment, and status

      @command_window.disable_item(0)

      @command_window.disable_item(1)

      # Branch by command window cursor position

      case @command_window.index

      when 2  # skill

        if $game_party.actors[@status_window.index].restriction >= 2

          # Play buzzer SE

          $game_system.se_play($data_system.buzzer_se)

        # Switch to skill screen

        $scene = Scene_Skill.new(@status_window.index)

        # Play decision SE

        $game_system.se_play($data_system.decision_se)

        # Switch to equipment screen

        $scene = Scene_Equip.new(@status_window.index)

      

      end

      return

    end

  end

end

 
 
Because you are setting the index to 0, and calling $scene = Scene_Equip.new in the update_command method

You should only call the new scene in the update_status method. (look at the default Scene_Menu for reference)

You should also remove the "$scene = Scene_Skill..." above it, so you can also choose an actor

Be Well
