RPG Maker Forums

Hello! I was told to ask my questions here, and not completely rely on the steam forums.

So I'm making a game with a complicated mechanic. If a character is hurt, a bulkier character will jump in front of them and take damage for them. Sort of like the whipping boy skill in Dragon Quest 9.

The thing is, this skill is automatic. The character's passive is to body-block damage for her allies, and I think I'm going to have to code this in Javascript (if possible). I'm more used to C#, but I think I can use simple IF statements to accomplish this goal.

I think I need to know the Actor ID for the person using the body blocking skills, and I need to know the id for individual party members. I would also need to disable this passive when the character's health is too low.

Where can I find the character IDs for all of my characters, and how EXACTLY would I code this mechanic into my game?

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.
