    Wow I didn't know of that script, it even "supposedly" lets you increase the number of Actors you can bring in battle(I really wish he took SSs of battles to show this off). This is amazing, you can even open a secondary party window, among other things.

    I don't need such for my current game, but how the hell did I not know of this script :)

    One of Yanfly's essentials. It's how I always have 5 in the active party. If you want screen shots ther are some in the threads for my games. First 2 in front view, the third in side view.

    I've moved this thread to Script Request. Please be sure to post your threads in the correct forum next time. Thank you.

    @OP:

    Please note that by default, the number of actors in the caterpillar (on map) is always the same as the number of active battlers. If you increase maxbattler (don't know the exact name) in the default scripts, you also make the caterpillar longer.

    To give you a different number of battlers and of followers, it'll need a script that rewrites the used methods to use different numbers.

    Err, maybe I'm missing some deep and subtle point, but there's no need for any special script if you want to change the number of people visible on the map.#

    Simply go into your script editor under Game_Objects to the script Game_Party.

    Scroll down until line 73 and change the 4 to the number of followers you need.

    Nothing else required - at least, that's how I've done it in 3 games without any problems.

    Changing that will change the battler numbers in the battle too. The OP requested to change the caterpillar count only without changing the battler count.

    Ah, I was right to wonder if I'd missed something.

    sorry about that.  That's what I get for reading too quickly.
