Actor skills?

[dombo813]

Does anyone know of a method through which actors can learn a certain skill at a certain level, regardless of which class they are? I need my Actor 1 to learn her 'signature skill' at Level 23, but without other level 23 Sorcerers also learning it. I also have a class change system, so she might be a Knight or even a Bard when she reaches level 23.

Dunno of an easy way of doing it in the database manager, buuuuuut... you could use a conditional branch with Hime's LevelUpEvents plugin. http://himeworks.com/2015/10/level-up-events/

A non Plugin means would be simply having a switch turned on when the game starts and a common event that runs on parallel process checking if the character's level is = to level 23. When they are you can add the skill and turn the switch off.


Heck if you have a common event already running on parallel process you could just add a check at the end:


If switch: learned Unique Skill is OFF


   If actor is level 23


        Actor learns Unique Skill


        switch: learned Unique Skill is ON


   end


end


I like trying to not use plugins so I offer you this method.


I'm sure there are plenty of other means but I'm on my phone right now and really find typing on it a pain.

Oh wow, that looks perfect! It'll allow me to do more with skill learning than just having it appear in their list too.

I like to avoid reliance on parallel processes whenever possible to prevent too many of them clogging up the game. I'm actually on zero of them (global ones) at the moment!

Makes sense. I try to keep active ones down as well. I use a lot of calls for others though.
