Summon Actor v1.3.2 LadyBaskerville Introduction Summoning creatures that replace the party in battle is a feature in many RPGs. While it is possible to create a Summoning system purely with events, doing so can be quite cumbersome, especially with a large number of actors. This plugin is meant to reduce the eventing work for those of you who want to create a Summoning mechanic with single Summons that replace the entire party, similar to the Aeons in Final Fantasy X. Features The plugin includes plugin commands to summon actors and return the party, which can be used in a skill's Common Event, and provides multiple options to choose when Summons should be automatically healed and what happens when a Summon dies in battle. It also allows you to specify how EXP should be distributed at the end of battle and provides a simple notetag in order to diasable skills if a certain actor is dead. How to use Plugin Parameters On Summon Death: Specify here what should happen when the Summon dies in battle. (return the party, run a common event, lose the battle) Death Common Event: If a Common Event is called on Summon Death, enter the Common Event ID here. Usually, you will want to either revive the Summon or return the party somewhere in the Common Event. Return On Battle End: Should the party return when the battle ends? Summon Battle End Common Event: Enter the ID of a Common Event that should be called after a Summon ends a battle. Use this to e.g. reset map tints. Heal Mode: When should Summons be healed automatically? (each time they are summoned, after each battle, never) EXP Mode: How should EXP be distributed? (only party, only Summon that ends the battle, party and Summon that ends the battle, party and all Summons that took part in the battle) Change Victory Aftermath (Yanfly): When using Yanfly's Victory Aftermath (and Aftermath Level Up), should the actors that appear on the EXP and Level Up screens be changed to reflect the EXP Mode? If true, Summons that gain EXP will appear first, then the party members that gain EXP, no matter who is on the screen when the battle ends. (If the EXP mode is set to "party" or "summon", only party members / the last Summon will be listed, respectively.) Max EXP Items: When using Yanfly's Victory Aftermath is installed and the parameter above is set to true, up to how many actors can appear on the EXP screen? Use -1 to automatically set this to the maximum number of battle members (default). (Any more actors will still gain EXP - and appear on the Level Up screen if Aftermath Level Up is installed as well - they just won't be shown on the EXP screen.) Plugin Commands Use the plugin command Code: SummonActor n to summon the actor with the ID n. Use the plugin command Code: ReturnParty to return the party members that were in the party before the summon. Notetag: You can automatically disable skills and items if an actor is dead (e.g. if you don't want to be able to summon a dead actor). Use the notetag Code: to only enable the skill / item if actor n is alive. Script Calls: $gameParty.LB_summonActor(n): This is the same as using the Plugin Command SummonActor n. $gameParty.LB_return(): This is the same as using the Plugin Command ReturnParty. $gameParty._LB_summonId: The actor ID of the current Summon. 0 if there is currently no Summon. $gameParty._LB_summon: The current Summon (a Game_Actor). null if there is currently no Summon.
