Active Actor - v1.0 11/24/2017

Creator: Adreos

Overview
This simple plugin assigns the ID of the last actor, or enemy, to perform an action in a battle to a control variable.

Features
  • Save last actor ID to a control variable
  • Save last enemy ID to a control variable

How to Use
Simply place the plugin in the plugins folder and set the parameters to the IDs of the control variables you wish to use.

Exmples of Use
The primary use of this plugin is to enable common events triggered by skills to target specific actors/enemies.
  • A skill can be used with any amount of TP but drains all the TP from the actor once used.
  • A fighter uses an attack that then sets a state on the casters/attacker instead of the reciever to enable a cooldown.
  • A fighters use a skill that changes their class mid-battle.
  • Display a message with the name of the last actor to make a move in the last battle.
  • An enemy in a troop targets the last actor to move.

Terms of Use
This plugin is free to use for commercial and non-commercial uses. All I ask for is credit given. The URL included in the plugin is not required in the credits.

FAQ
Q: Where are the Control Variable IDs?
A: Whenever you use select which control variable to use a pop up window appears
that lets you both select the variable and rename it. The 4 digit number to the
left of the names are the Control Variable IDs. Leading zeros are not required (Ex: 0007 can be input as 7)

Q: How do I disable setting variables for actors or enemies?
A: Actors and enemies can be assigned different values. Set one to 0 to disable the global variable.

Q: Can I use the global variable outside of battle?
A: Yes you can. But the next time battle starts the control variables will be automatically set by the plugin again.

Screenshots

This is where you can find the Control Variable ID.
Highlighted is Control Variable 0007, or just 7

In this skill the HP recovered is based on the TP on hand. It then calls on the Common Event TP Burn


The common event TP Burn removes 100 TP from a variable actor, that variable being the one set by this plugin

Our latest feature is an interview with... me?!

People4_2 (Capelet off and on) added!

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
