Greetings everyone!
I've learned sooo much from the people and scripts on this website (thanks everyone <3), but I've compiled myself a list of problems that keep stumping me.. I've literally read the manual front to back, so please don't just direct me there. I've spent countless hours googling my problems, looking through threads, etc and still no luck. I've waited a long time to post this thread, in hopes that I could solve my own problems (which many of them I did). This is my first post but I don't plan to be a leech on the site, I'm currently working on a tileset addon to give to all you guys for the help that you never knew you were givin me!
But anyway, here are the things that keep stumping me repeatedly:
1. When I try to make an enemy jump, i get this error "undefined method 'jump_passable?' for Map Enemy XXX... I suspect this may be due to some additional scripts I have/script order but I've tried rearranging my scripts and no luck.. I also thought it may be my custom chipsets, but I made sure that I set all the jump tiles etc...
2. I just cant get alignment groups to work out correctly, enemies of the correct group (\g[2]) often just start caterpillaring to me as if they switched sides to primary actors. Even though I believe I have everything configured correctly.. This also tends to happen with healing spells. When enemies use healing spells on each other, It sometimes leads to their groups getting switched and them attacking each other..
3. Finally, I just can't seem to get my mind wrapped around the fine points of combos exactly.. I would like to use a combo that has a random element, perhaps allowing a mage to use a different spell type at random (fire, ice, etc..) or based on player distance, but the combo action interface confuses me. Is there some way to do a conditional branch based on the enemy's proximity to the player or something?
4. I have a "Map" that is really just an in-game map that you are teleported to, but I want all other party members/summons to be temporarily "suspended" while youre on this certain map. Is this possible?
Thank you all so much for your help, As I said I've thoroughlly read every part of the manual and done PLENTY of troubleshooting on my own. So i think its time to turn to the experts.
