How can I control other party members in a cutscene? Like I want the main guy to move to the left side of a monster and have the other party member be on the right side.

This can be done without scripts.

Set events for each party member, name them after the characters. (exclude player character.)

You first transfer events to your player character, have a switch happen for each one so their graphics on page two of their event pops up, set Through to On and have them move to their proper location, making sure to uncheck 'Wait'

The last thing you want to move is the player character, which will have 'Wait' checked. All of the characters will move to their proper places simultaneously.

I was operating under the assumption that he wouldn't be using the followers thing. In that case, it would be a bit trickier, unless he gathers followers first, activates the switches, then deactivates followers.

This, that's how I always do it.

When I first start making a game, I set a switch for each char(in party), and for the entire game, those switch will be associated with the char, which makes it very easy to execute such events(I made a inn setup, where visually the char slitup to go to their own beds, then in the morning, they come out one at a time to reform the party at the counter.

But here's the thing about moving them like in the inn: You have to have specific characters, don't you?

I mean, my game has 24 chars. There's no way you can find out who will be in the front row and which bed they'll use unless you have generic comands for party members, is there?

How many parameters is 'too many'??
Yay, now back in action Happy Christmas time, coming back!






Back in action to develop the indie game that has been long overdue... Final Fallacy. A game that keeps on giving! The development never ends as the developer thinks to be the smart cookie by coming back and beginning by saying... "Oh bother, this indie game has been long overdue..." How could one resist such? No-one c
So I was playing with filters and this looked interesting...

Versus the normal look...

Kind of gives a very different feel. :LZSexcite:
