Actors Friendship System

Actors Friendship System v2.08
by Moogle_X
​

Introduction
This plugin adds friendship mechanic between the main actor and other actors of your choice. Each actor has their own friendship value that can be increased or decreased multiple ways. As the friendship value grows, that actor's friendship level may level up. You can set some skills to be automatically learned at certain friendship level.


There is also the option to store certain actor's friendship value or friendship level into in-game variable. You can then use that variable's value as a conditional trigger for new event, etc.


Actor's friendship value can be viewed in custom scene. You can access it from the main menu or simply by using plugin command.


Features
- Use plugin command to increase/decrease actor's friendship value.
- Items and skills used by the Main Actor can increase/decrease other actor's friendship value.


- View actor's friendship value in custom scene.
- Learn new skills by increasing friendship level.


- Easily change in-game variables using plugin command.


- Run any common event at specific Friendship Level.

Another one of those plugins you forgot you needed until it smacks you in the face like this one

Thanks a million!

 

[Skotty TV]

Pretty awesome!!!

EXACTLY what i need

Thank you very much my friend!

Stay Awesome!    BD  

 

[SpacemanFive]

Awesome! This is just one of the kinds of things my projects need! Thank you!

There's something I'm wondering about, though. How difficult and time intensive would it be to allow for other characters to be the "leader" of their own relationships, as well? For example, Actor 1 might be on great terms with Actor 2 and Actor 3, but Actor 2 might hate Actor 3. I don't want to request it if it's too much, but it's something my projects could really use, and might help other people a lot as well.

I second this... basically like a faction system... Perhaps even make it extend beyond your characters... perhaps buying lots from a store increases your relationship with the shop guild or something and your relationship level gives discounts... or because you are friendly with the thieves guild, the shop guild dislikes you and charges you more... just an idea

 

[Sol Rising]

would it be possible to achieve a cap on friendship level? once friendship level reaches lv "x" amount, the other actors can not achieve that level, kinda like a marriage thing in fire emblem?

 

[LuLight]

Awesome!!  I need it!!

 

[Parallax Panda]

Very, very nice! This is very usefull!

Like Sol Rising said though, a cap parameter or something similar would be very nice so you can't "break" the system.

I would personally also like to request the option to display the friendship in Icons or a gauge, instead of numbers. And the possibility to decide the intervall for when a new icon is shown if this option is chosen would also add a lot of depth to the customization in my opinion.

For example, make it so it displays one heart (icon) every 5th friendship level. So at level 1-4 it would show one heart and at 5-9 it would show two hearts etc.

 

[Obsidian]

This is great! Does it only work for actors in the party (or actors in general), or can NPCs be set and have their friendship levels go up using plugin commands in events? 

 

[Moogle_X]

@Obsidian

You can use it for NPC too as long as you put a dummy NPC data into the Actors database. After that, you can increase their friendship value using plugin command.

 

[Neo Soul Gamer]

This might be one of my favorite plugins so far. Not sure if I'll use it in my game, as I hate just packing on features just for the sake of having them. But it's very very nice. Great job!

 

[Gabihime]

This is great! I was very excited when I saw you were working on this.

This is pretty much exactly what I need!

I'd also like the ability to apply states based on friendship level, if that's not too much trouble So once the level reaches a particular value, states for one or both of the characters could be triggered. (Like a perma passive state, available through other plugins).

I... third this? Is that a thing? Anyway a faction system would be GREAT but I love the script already since it gives a layer of personality to the characters!

Considering many people request this, I am going to update this plugin with new features like Global Level Cap, Multiple "Leaders", and icons.

But, I'm afraid it's not going to come soon. I want to finish writing 2 other plugins first. After that, I will update this plugin. BD

 

[gokuby]

Very useful!

Could you please add Terms of Use(e.g. only non-commercial, free for all, etc)

 

[LuLight]

Can you make 'Total FP' save in 'Variable ID' please

+ oh I found it in 'HELP' it very awesome!!

+ can you make it decrease FP when the actor died in battle please

 Yes! I've been lurking in this thread for days now waiting for you to confirm this. I'll definally use this plugin when it's updated.

I'd also like you to add your terms of use (commercial use ok?) and additional details on how you want to be credited. Is "Moogle_X" in the end credit acceptable to you etc?

 

[Lucin]

Haha, I just wrote some friendship's common events yesterday to find this now xD

Thank you, it's very useful! 

 

[Eisenwain]
