    I would like to rearrange the order of the battle commands that appear during battle.

    Orginally they are

    Attack
    Magic
    Guard

    And i would like to change it to:

    Attack
    Guard
    Magic

    A minor change, but i am wondering the best way of going about it. I would prefer not to use a plugin, but i will use one if nesscary

    You could edit rpg_windows.js, but it really is best to use plugins because next time MV gets an update, your changes could be lost if you edit the core files directly. All you really need to do is make a tiny plugin with something like this (I think, note that I haven't tested it personally)

    Code:
    Window_ActorCommand.prototype.makeCommandList = function() {
    if (this._actor) {
        this.addAttackCommand();
        this.addGuardCommand();
        this.addSkillCommands();
        this.addItemCommand();
    }
};

        this.addItemCommand();
    }
};


    That is awesome, i will give that a shot to see if it works. It may be better to use a plugin tk accomplish the same thing.. ive looked around, most just hide them or disable commands, but im just trying to rearrange the default order!

    You could use Hime's Battle Command plugin. that way you can even pick which skill type is displayed in which actor's command list or even add skills to them.

    I was also looking into that but it seems to me that it only hides commands as apposed to creating new ones? If i could hide them all and them replicate them in a different order it might work.. any ideas?

    @Joshmcd You just need to place the commands in the order that you want in the actor's notebox. You want the default command to look like this:

    -Attack
    -Guard
    -Magic
    -Skill
    -Item

    So you would need to set it up like this:

    <battle command: attack />
    <battle command: guard />
    <battle command: skill_type 1 />
    <battle command: skill_type 2 />
    <battle command: item />

    This will give you the setup you want.

    Is there a way to use this to add a new command like Auto Battle or to move escape to the actor commands?
