Moogle_X's Actors Friendship System

Solar_Flare · 2020-07-05T10:01:47+0900

Actors Friendship System v3.1 by Moogle_X & Solar Flare Games (continued from Moogle_X's thread) Introduction This plugin adds a friendship mechanic between the main actor and other actors of your choice. Each actor has their own friendship value that can be increased or decreased multiple ways. As the friendship value grows, that actor's friendship level may level up. You can set some skills to be automatically learned at certain friendship levels. There is also the option to store a certain actor's friendship value or friendship level into an in-game variable. You can then use that variable's value as a conditional trigger for a new event, etc. An actor's friendship value can be viewed in a custom scene. You can access it from the main menu or simply by using a plugin command. Note: If you used version 2 of this plugin, you will need to redo your plugin parameters. The parameters are basically the same (other than some new ones), so you can probably just take a screenshot of the parameters on version 2, replace it with version 3, and then copy them over. Note: This plugin only works on MV, but if you're using MZ, there is a conversion available based on Moogle_X's original plugin. Features Use a plugin command to increase/decrease an actor's friendship value. Items and skills used by the Main Actor can increase/decrease other actors' friendship value. View actors; friendship values in a custom scene. Learn new skills by increasing the friendship level. Easily change in-game variables using plugin commands. Run any common event at specific Friendship Levels. You are able to use more than one Leader. Decide which actors become leaders by using notetags. You can set a "Best Friend Skill" that's unlocked when 2 actors have Maximum Friendship Level with each other. Global Level Cap feature! Apply a level cap restriction at anytime to any actors by using plugin commands. FP Lock effect. Temporarily prevent a certain actor from gaining or losing FP by using a plugin command. Friendship Icons. Customize which icon(s) show up at each level by using notetags. Custom Friend Icon. Add any icon to any actor at anytime mid-game by using a plugin command. Custom Leader Icon. Use a plugin command to add/remove an icon in the Window Leader List. Lots of variable control. Quickly check which actor has the highest FP or Friendship Level among the Leader's friend list. Complete window customization. Disable or enable some parts of the window. Adjust the Offset X and Offset Y to your liking! Automatic passive states based on the friendship level between actors. Both the leader and the friend can gain a state. Negative friendship levels can be enabled. You can run events or add states or skills when two actors hate each other. Set any action to be performed when you select an actor in the friends window. For example, you could use another plugin to show some more detailed information on that actor. By default, no action is performed. Screenshots Spoiler The format of these note tags is out-dated, see plugin's help file for the proper format. How to Use Install the plugin using plugin manager and edit the plugin configurations (there are plenty). Read the help file for more info on notetags and plugin commands. The plugin even supports Multiple Leaders. You can view all actors' relationship value with each other. You have a choice between Single Leader scene or Multiple Leaders scene Spoiler: Single Leader The Multiple Leaders version will contain both Window Friend List and Window Leader List. Spoiler: Multiple Leaders Terms of Use Free to use in both commercial and non-commercial projects as long as credit is given. Simply credit "Moogle_X" in your in-game credits. You can optionally credit me as well as either "Solar Flare" or "Solarflare Software". Based on Moogle_X's GitHub page, their version of the plugin appears to be licensed under the Apache license. As such, I've chosen to license my version under the same license. The details can be read here, but basically that means you can modify it however you want and distribute your changes anywhere, as long as you don't remove Moogle_X or me from the credits in the plugin file and add a notice to the file indicating that you modified it. (If you don't distribute your changes, I believe you don't need to add the notice.) Download You can download the latest version of the plugin from the attachment on this post.

I'm unsure if you're still maintaining this plugin, but I'm getting the mentioned "face null" error when trying to hide a character later on and also when i don't use the plugin command to show all the actors in the leader's list.

I'm not currently actively maintaining it, but I do intend to return to it and, hopefully, fix that error once and for all.

This plugin sounds awesome! However, I keep getting errors when I want to open the menu. On Save Files that I just included the plugin, the menu makes the game crash and on new Save Files (that start with the Friendship Menu Existing) don't show anything. Please help me, I'd love to use this plugin!

There's no expectation that a save file created before you added the plugin would continue to work after you add it. It's not great that it crashes, so I may look into it eventually, but it's not too surprising that it doesn't work.

As for the case of the new game where your friendship menu is empty, that's probably because no friends have been added to the menu yet. You need to use the AFS Show Leader command and AFS Show Friend commands to enable the leader and friends in the window.

It looks like you've mostly grasped what's needed. What you're missing is that those two commands are not note tags, but plugin commands. Therefore, you need to call them as a plugin command from an event. I also have to point out that you need to use the actor's ID number, not their name.

If you don't mind me asking what version of the plugin are you using? And are you on the newest version of MV? Interested in using this plugin for my game.

@osaly Did you save your project and start a new playtest game after installing the plugin? Not loading a save game?

@osaly Now somehow you've gotten the name of the plugin wrong.

It should be Moogle_X_ActorsFriendshipSystem.js but you have Moogle_X_ActorsFriendshipSystem 1.js

update i found the problem. for some odd reason this plugin is not compatible with the dreamX capture enemies plugin. i have no idea why but having those two in one project will crash your game. if you are using the 1.6a version you can enter but it will crash the moment you attempt to capture a monster

I just updated the opening post with version 3.1 of this plugin. It only has a few small changes – see the changelog in the plugin file for details.

I think this fixes the dreaded "face null" error. I'm only not 100% sure because I can't find any record of it being fixed, and yet when I look at the place that the debugging investigation identified as the cause, the fix is in place.

Just a note: I have no current plans to port this to MZ. That might change if I decide to switch my entire game over to MZ, but I haven't made such a decision at this time, and I even if it did, I may choose to instead use the MZ plugin linked in the opening post.
