Retrieve All Actors

[coolperez8]

So, I was looking at the script call list featured here:




I was wondering if there was a way to obtain every actor in the game?


I tried this (using common sense, since it isn't mentioned in the list) but the game crashes:

for (var i = 0; i < $dataActors.length; i++) {
  if (!!$dataActors[i]) {
    if ($dataActors[i].name.length > 0) {
      $gameParty.addActor($dataActors[i]);

    }
  }
}

This works for me to give all actors into my party... granted I only have 4, so I dont know if it would freak out if you have more actors, and Im not able to test anything extra right now.


for (var i = 1; i < $dataActors.length; i++) {
$gameParty.addActor(i)
$gamePlayer.refresh();
$gameMap.requestRefresh();
}


Note the "var i =1" is needed instead of i = 0 cause it would cause a crash cause there is no actor with an ID of 0

Yep, it works.

Good lord!  No wonder you wanted to do that by script call, lol

Yeah.

The reason I have this many actors is because one of the characters has a special power which allows him to change forms.
