Switch Party Formation using an event.

● ARCHIVED · READ-ONLY

  1. I am currently working on a game in VX Ace, and I want to make it so that the player can't change their party formation unless at their home base. I would like to make an event that takes them to the formation screen, but cannot figure out how. I already have the formation button disabled, I'd just need this event. Any help would be appreciated.
  2. You mean this?

    It enables/disables the Formation menu from being usable or grey and not usable. You can just turn it on every time they enter the map and disable it in the exit warp.

    I'm sure you can force open the Formation window, but you would need to call a script and Ive got no idea on that. From bugging around Scene_Menu I found out that the formation menu doesnt have a command like for example the Save window (   SceneManager.call(Scene_Save) ) so no idea. Yey I learnt something on my own!

    Yes, that is what I have done thus far. Enabling it at the player home and disabling it elswhere is a good idea, I'll do that if I can't find something to force the menu up.

    By event commands, you can only force open the menu screen with all points, not the specific formation screen.
    You'll need a script call for a direct access to a specific menu (other than main and save)

    Ok, fair enough. I'll figure out how to remind the player to select their party or something.
