Character/Class help on RM2k3/XP
 

I need a little help here. Is there a way to change a character's class to an advanced or better version of that class when they reach a certain level, like on the Fire Emblem series? For example, on Fire Emblem, an archer, when it reaches a certain level, turns into a sniper. Or a cleric turns to a bishop. Or a cavalier turns to a paladin. Is there any way I can do that on RM2k3/XP?:confused: :grin: ;)

Aye.

What you need is all the different classes first of all, and a common event for each new class - for each character (we're talking about a lot of common events here. Say each character can have 4 classes, which changes as they level up. And you've got 6 characters... that's 24 common events. Talk to BC, he can probably cut it down to one for each character).

Basically, the common even (parallel process) is a conditional branch that checks to see if the character is a certain level (fig 1.). If the character IS that level, then it chages their class (4th page of events), and could show a little message.

fig1 shows the conditional branch.
fig2 shows the change class.
fig3 shows the complete code.

EDIT: As you can also see, in fig3, I cannot spell nifty.

Um...is this for RMXP or 2k3?

It should work in both.

I did that in RM2K3, but I'm pretty sure that the same thing can be done in RMXP, in exactly the same way. Try it. I'm sure it'll work.

I'll try the Class thingy in RMXp as soon as my FTP client has finished uploading... well, Frontpage really. FileZilla doesn't like files larger than a couple of mb, and the FTP with the webspace control panel hates me.

Yeah I know what ya mean. Mine has a grudge. I swear, one day it'll take a cyber axe to my neck 0.0

Thanks Lenny! This will help me in making my game.
