Hi all,

So I was brainstorming a concept and I don't think their is anyway to accomplish it without a script of some kind. I would also be interested in other possible options but felt this was the best most likely place to post my question.

I have an actor who is not in the party but is the main character. They travel with the party, and are the face of the party for all story related things. They give the party commands in battle that aid the party members via buff like effects.

I am using SRD_PKM_TrainerSprite to allow the main character to walk around maps but this also prevents the main character from being part of the party which is fine because they hide behind their goons and never get attacked. A game over happens if all their allies die.

Is their a way to call an actors skills who is not in the party or perhaps hide an actor during combat and prevent them from being attacked?

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.
