Hi, I have little JS knowledge but virtually none when it comes to sprites. I've been using Filter Controller for glow filters but I ran into general compatibility issues with the plugin, so I want to make my own. For now, I'll start with the player character, and extend it to followers/events on my own once I know I'm headed towards the right direction.

The goal is to make the player sprite glow (for a set duration, but I'll implement that later):
1) I know how to set up the filter itself, but what sprite class should I put the filter functions in? Would it be Spriteset_Map? Sprite_Character?
2) How do I target the player sprite specifically? I'm used to doing code snippets (something like $gameActors.actor(1).___.setGlowFilter()?) but I can't figure this one out.

Thanks in advance.

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.
time for a new avatar :)
