Need quick help

So i've made a custom class, and i've made it so the class gets cure in lvl 1, but for some reason my class has no abileties, does anyone know how to fix this?

Please use more meaningful thread titles in future. Include some words that actually hint at what you need help with. You can change your thread title by editing your post, then clicking on Use Full Editor. Thank you.


What is the Skill Type for Cure? Have you set a feature for your class to have that skill type?

The skill type is magic, which is the same as the class has as skill type

And your actor has the correct class, and you have the actor in your party?


Some screenshots might help sort this one out ... screenshot of your actor, your class, your skill, and a shot of the skills window in battle where you can see that the skill is missing.


If you're not sure how to take screenshots or post images here, just say so and I'll copy over some instructions.

Im not quite sure on how to post pictures her, if you can help me with that

here you go ...

How to upload the image to the forums


Now that you have you have an image on your computer you'd like to show us, how can you get it to show up on the forums? Firstly, you need to find an image hosting site, photobucket.com or imageshack.us are popular ones. If you have another image uploading website, great - use that one! Either way, upload it to the site, and then get the direct link. Don't get the resized link, or the thumbnail link, but the direct URL. You'll know you have the direct URL if the URL ends with the file extension you saved your image in (which will hopefully be .png).



Once you have this direct URL to your image, simply use the IMG tags in your forum post and paste the URL in between them. If this image is big, please leave the image in spoiler tags.

Spoiler tags, for large images, look like this:

The last one is just because i have a charector creator that makes actor and class and gender

Don't really see anything wrong there. Are you able to zip up your project and load it up somewhere so I can grab it and take a quick look?

I don't see anything wrong with the screenshots, but there are a few things that might have caused confusion, and you should correct them.


1) always name all actors, even if you plan to have the player rename them after a character generator.


It can be a default name or a placeholder, but the editor uses the names for developer convenience - without the name, some commands are displayed like your "Change Party Member: Add []" - the place where the actor to be added should be listed is empty, because that actor has no name.


And now consider you have several unnamed actors because you want the player to name all of them - no one will be able to see if the command adds the correct actor if there is no placeholder for the name.


This is especially since it looks like you're using two different actors for boy/girl - are you sure that the change class commands are set to the correct actor? you can't be because you have no name on those commands...


2) if an actor is added for the first time, initialize it.


This is the checkbox in the change party member command, and you didn't check that box.


Initializing an actor means that all data is set to the default database values - you should not do this when changing party members temporarily because that also removes all EXP and equipment and other changes, but it also removes anything that might cause other problems.

Well the reason why i dont have a name for the actors is because when i playtest it and put in the name, i for some reason cant remove letters.

So if i have an actor name the custom name would have to start with the actor name.

I have done some testing, and if i level up i get the new abiletys, but i dont have my lvl 1 abilety
.

I was thinking if i maybe in some way start at lvl 0 and then gain a level instantly?

viggomopsen, please avoid double posting, as it is against the forum rules. You can review our forum rules here. Thank you.

Then something is wrong with either your keyboard or the engine, because the change name command does allow a player to change the name completely. 

Did you initialize the actor upon adding? because you should get the skills for level one when you do that.
Otherwise that again is an indication of something wrong with your engine.


Did you add any script that might have changed the behaviour?

I did initialize the actor, but since ive made a charactor creator, you choose the class of the actor after initializing the charactor, could that be why im having the problem?

And no i have not added any scripts at all.

How are you trying to remove the letters? The backspace and delete keys can't be used. Escape removes letters already there.


Changing the class MAY be the problem. I THINK there's an issue that if you change the class of an actor, they don't unlearn skills they already know, and they don't learn skills for the new class for levels they've already reached.


Just change your character creator so when they select the class, you change them to the appropriate class, and then manually make them learn any skills they should have at level 1.
