MARREND'S PROFILE

If this idea could be executed by replacing the "dead" state with a "pacified" or "tamed" state, then, I think this concept could be applied with relative ease. All RPG Maker products allow a certain amount of customization in regards to state application text. The earlier makers, such as 2K and 2K3 might have a separate entry-box for the "dead" state application text, but, I certainly don't specifically recall.

I just remembered when you mentioned multi party that Hero's Realm could separate parties by using keyboard like 1,2,3,4 or something like that to switch between parties. Been a while since I played it. I will check Yanly's script and see what it offers. Thanks.

Well, recall that Hero's Realm was made in TsuK3. The event-command that detects button input is widely different between the two engines. For one, Ace's event-command will only recognize the symbols of "A", "B", "C", "X", "Y", "Z", "L" and "R". None of the number-keys are associated to those symbols via the Input module, and I have no idea how one might go about associating them, as the Input module is one of those hidden-from-view classes.

The basic premise of a multi-party dungeon would indicate that the game "remembers" the position of the other parties when the context of the game switches between parties. Which translates to using a set of game-variables (one variable for the x coordinate, one variable for the y coordinate, one variable for Map ID) and one event (per map?) for however many different parties the characters split into. To say nothing about keeping track of who's in what party. Forcing who goes where might be the best option, but, for something like FF6's multi-party dungeons, you might need a few extra variables to keep track of ID's. Or, maybe you use game-variables as their own array to keep track of the marching order of the various parties?

Getting everyone back together would likely indicate maybe a short cut-scene, as the separate party events move into the "main" party, and the characters are added back to the "main party".

Setting things up so that a switch is active only when a party is standing on it can be tricky. Like, it's one thing to set up an event page to trigger with "On Hero Touch" with a priority of "Below Hero". "Hero", in this context, generally refers to the player-character. However, if you've set aside specific events on each map in the multi-party dungeon that could contain a party, you may be able to use a Conditional Branch to determine the location of those events versus the location of the switches that would need to be stepped?

some things: how i can find the correct forum to post a thread about games needing guides/walktrhoughs?

There wouldn't be a forum thread concerning guides. They would likely be posted on a gamepage-by-gamepage basis. A game developer could opt to create a "Guide" or "Help" tab on a gamepage and have one there. Whereas a regular user may opt to submit one as a media object.

How i can find a place to chat about the whole "black screens in sidequest pages when i click in one to see more in depth" in games made with rpgmaker mv?

I kinda feel this kind of thing would still be on a game-by-game basis? Like, even if one does contact the developer of the code/system to fix the issue, any fix they could apply will not automatically apply across to all games that include the code/system.

Huh. Not even the wayback machine had any results for the link found on the gamepage of Maia 2K3.
