NIVLACART'S PROFILE

Halp pls. The entirity of my game may rest on this.

My game has actors that I can't specify. Some of them are created via script and assigned an ActorID, so I can't tell which actor is which.

Boy was I thrilled to find out I could find out their ActorID's via Variable>Game Data>Party Member's ActorID.
But then I realized that I didn't know how to create Conditional Branches drawing from this variable.

I wanted to to do things like... if the party member was left in town then I could call up the conditional branch to change the sprite of the event depending on what class it was, or be able to add stats to this Actor through events.

I thought it'd be something like... I don't know,

author=My guess
$game_actors[$game_variable [61] ].add_param(1, 1)

?
I doubt the double square brackets would work huh...

Is there a way to call events for an actor via actorID stored in variable?

I have plenty of other questions to ask

author=Wrecking my brain
How to make critical rate rise when MP is lower
How to make HP fall like Poison when MP is 0
How to set a condition to check a stat of any actor is above a certain amount

but I probably should be spacing out my questions since I've been posting in every single other RPGMaker forum for help.
Aaaaaah... I really shouldn't have done this idea for IGMC without a programmer...

But simulation games don't usually focus on the plot, so I don't know how I'd make an 'ending' that would fit the rule that requires one.

I am sweating bullets.

Uoh, thanks Sated, although I don't have random encounters in my game so that won't work. I'll probably just try to figure out how to add and remove that member without screwing up the formation.

Staring at the sheer amount of common events and variables and scripts and wondering whether I can pull off this game within 2 weeks

Deep within the panic of IGMC, I came to realize that other than within the throes of gam mak, developing a game, we don't really have ways to practice Game Design and building events. So I thought of this challenge as an idea!

So without further ado, with the pursuit of improvement in mind, each person posts a gameplay function (e.g. a treasure chest that has random loot) to achieve through events, and the next person who posts has to solve it, via explanation or screenshots of Event Pages, and then issues the next challenge for someone else to solve!

RULES:
1. The challenge you issue you must already know how to create.
2. You're encouraged to reach the solution without relying too much on scripts.
3. You're allowed to suggest more efficient methods of approach, but no being mean about it.
4. Your answer to the challenge does not have to be exact, but as long as it hits around close to what is needed to be achieved, it's good.

Although eventually this topic might probably end up as a help topic, I thought that it'd be good for some to not only practice, but also those who're looking for solutions might find their answers browsing through the answered challenges of this thread. Hopefully the difficulty of challenges ramps up over time too.


So the first challenge is:

A 4-digit number passworded door!

I'm definitely a cheerful person but when I do feel negative emotion I tend to prefer to express it in anger (over sadness or any other mood)

Anger's my go-to negative emotion. I make a lot of noise, yell at things a lot, scream on twitter... then go back to normal XDD

I just noticed this kind of recently.
